yes, I heard the 20 were poolies from Covid and that more have since interviewed and are awaiting class dates. 40 is not surprising. Heavy international experience at a well known carrier with rigorous training. It’s a known product to recruit from.
with the recent email asking guys to volunteer for overtime, it looks like I called it right. With the increased flying, and even more leaving, we may be hiring even sooner than I predicted.
I've flown more this month than in the previous three months combined. Used all 16 days, plus they tagged me on the over ride day.
I think things are looking up....
it’s a good company.
