But like I said, I’ll take the bet on the JBLU order book vs your 28000 pilot total. I don’t think there are enough women to join your aviate program to make that happen.
You are right Cinco, United will never have 28k pilots, ever. In fact, I would be extremely surprised if they ever reach 20k. That is simply fairly land. There is simply not enough demand for that amount of flying, nowhere near it. I would not be surprised at all if hiring doesn’t come to screeching halt in 2024 and maybe even furlough soon after. I would not want to be at anyone’s bottom of the seniority list right now.
