Regionals are doomed. The ones exclusively flying 50 seaters will go first, but even the others…
You can’t get your FOs enough experience to upgrade without CAs, and you can’t keep CAs at regional pay scales.
Just look at what they are offering for regional DECs.



Of course, I think NK is going for the regional FOs that will be stranded when they have no more CAs to gain hours with. That’ll work too.
