There’s a possible rumor going around that DL will avoid hiring pilots from 9E who have left for a LCC (some say for up to one year). I’m wondering how much of this is damage control by 9E looking to stop the attrition vs. actual reality. I have seen multiple recent instances of CJOs going to folks who would fall into this bucket.

Given how DL talks extensively about their hiring needs, if this policy is true, it is extremely shortsighted and petty. It won’t bring folks back from a LCC, and could even solidify their likelihood to remain where they are. The sweet irony is that, for many, LCC + one year penalty box still comes out ahead of the current flow times.

I suppose time will tell if this is attrition control propaganda or policy. Anyone else seeing this in practice?
