There are training costs, but there are also wage savings built in to the attrition equation that partially/fully compensate for the costs.
It takes 2 weeks for a pilot to quit.
Its taking 3+ months for a newhire to get through IOE these days with the training backlog
Metal is moving at about 80% of what it needs to move.
Planes are coming to be parked because ^see above
They care.
Dont be a dumb dumb like ExCargo and think Management does care about trying to get this fixed. Luckily we dont give management a blank check to fix first year and training pay on its own. No free rides for management.
But please, dont go full ExCargo...nobody ever goes full ExCargo
