Not sure what you are saying. I don’t think UAL, DAL and AA are having over 50% of their new hires leaving.

You and your clueless CEO are living in Lala land. This is not going to get better. It’s just the tip of the iceberg. IMO in 2023 Spirit will lose more pilots than it can hire. Those planes will not be flying.

UAL’s Kirby is about to order over 100 new widebodies in addition to the 500 narrowbodies he’s getting over the next 60 months. He intends to hire 400 pilots a month.

This means all tier 2 carriers, Spirit, Alaska, Frontier, SWA and JetBlue will lose more pilots than they can hire and train.

Time for Spirit to get real and match or exceed Legacy carrier contracts.
