I think many airlines are running a wait and see program. Legacy airlines have slowed hiring, ULCC and ULC are canceling classes, pulling out of markets and furloughing, and the winds of Recession have arrived....hence the market crash today. Regionals are starting to show increasing signs of stress and concessions are likely. So it's anyone's guess when hiring will commence again. But combine Boeing problems, engine problems, slowing travel, recession and some airlines about to bite the dust, it could be a slow few years. The election should cast some light on how the economy might look going forward in 2026-27 assuming the country survives the transition of power. Have a backup plan just if need be.
