I’m not sure that’s the case. I figure there are 800 who wouldn’t mind. Also the revolving door at the bottom 25% implies that getting a number at a legacy without sacrificing longevity and going through the hassle of interview, training and probation is attractive. There certainly are the drawbacks though. I’m too late in my career for it to make much difference but I’d love to be a retiree at a network carrier for the travel bennies.
