Of course they have staffing problems, they forgot to say they purchased a plane that holds 90 people and put 76 seats on it and subcontracted it out to the lowest bidder.
The lowest bidder can’t find a PIC and their 1.4B quarterly profits can’t support having the full 90 seats and being flown in house.
Is this even reality?
Sounds absurd to even talk about “staffing” on planes that have arbitrary reduced capacity and are contracted out to a company every pilot knows isn’t a real career to begin with.
