· 2025 Hiring

The latest staffing updates that were sent to our Membership Committee show a reduced hiring projection of 515 pilots for 2025. Obviously, this number is essentially just a replacement for the roughly 500 retiring pilots in 2025. However, we all know plans can change in an instant, especially with the changing economy, struggles at low-cost carriers, lagging Airbus delivery schedules, and the certification of the 737 Max 10.
