That doesn’t mean anything with our current situation. Go look at the standing bid list for upgrades. They literally have nobody left to upgrade and that’s not even considering most of those standing bids are FO's without the time.

30 upgrades awarded in August not because that’s all they needed!! You can now upgrade into freaking San Diego with less than 1 year seniority.

Any base you want it’s yours from the left seat. We’ll continue to lose 100+ Captains a month, and maybe upgrade 20-30. FO’s leaving with less than 1,000 hours makes the situation even worse. They mentioned it in the earnings call, hiring new FO’s will never be a problem, but having enough body’s in the left seat WILL BE A PROBLEM.

The scariest part, $200 an hour for Captains won’t stop most of us from leaving to a Major. It’s going to require drastic measures. My favorite part of this is Delta attempting to meter OO captains, so they leave for Southwest instead, and in the process have destroyed pilot moral that’s already low to begin with.
