I’d rather fly with a guy that’s been back in forth to the Bahamas in SFL weather than a CFI. I also know as soon as you complete the Spirit training with a new A320 type you are marketable anywhere and getting stuck here isn’t the same as getting stuck at a regional.

All of this info is today and things change fast which is why the advice to move fast. The hiring numbers are staggering. It’s a bit frustrating for some of us too bc many of us are waiting to see if this merger gets approved before deciding to cut bait and move on. Problem is while we wait someone else is getting hired and getting senior to us somewhere else, as well as most likely younger. It’s a painful waiting game. Imo if the merger doesn’t get approved this place will go to hell under Frontier or we will shrink to death on our own as everyone floods out the door.
