At this moment in history... if they double down on screwing the pilots, they could lose 1,000 of them in 12-18 months. Legacies hiring well over 10K/year for the next several years, that math simply cannot be denied. Once it starts, it will be a self-fulfilling prophecy as lazy, comfortable people starting getting pushed down into lower relative seniority with upgrade prospects dwindling into the indefinite future. That will light a fire under a lot of arses.

That's exactly how the sunny CBA went from dead last to not so bad overnight (their one base is low COL too).
