Devils advocate. We sign the ALPA ask, entirely, with 320/hr CAs and full retro to Apr 1, 2020.

I’m a sub 35 yr old newhire at AS with 30 or more years left. Tell me again, why should I stay at AS? Are we really going to pretend a new TA is going to keep me around? I don’t even care if it’s 350/hr. Why stick around as a new person for 30+ years, in 5 west coast ONLY bases, the MAX9/10 for the rest of my career, with much slower movement, lower retirements over the next 10 years?

Sorry, I don’t see the attrition problem stopping so as long as the big 3 pax + big 2 cargo keep hiring in big numbers as they are nowadays. The avg longevity for resignations is published by ALPA and seems to be a sub 3-yr value. No surprise there.
