Picking off a pilot from a competitor who just spent 50 to 100 stacks training that pilot isn’t a strategy?
I disagree.
And don’t even get me started with your hilarious quote, “they just hire the most qualified candidates”. So what’s the angle then with the AVIATE and DELTA Propel programs? They’ve been strategically hiring before Covid even started.
