And it’s going to increase too
AA has classes assigned now into March, so there are plenty of NK pilots with a class date/soon to be, and waiting for that two week mark to send in notice.
And honestly, why even give 2 weeks? Seems like guys would be better off waiting until the last day or so. I don’t recall anything contractually that allows a pilot to pull back their resignation if something happens to their class date. Guy gives 2 weeks, AA or UAL somehow cancels the class, NK says “nope, you resigned,” now you’re out on your butt.
Better would be to fly right before class date, drop your remaining trips, and drop letter of resignation after last trip. It’s not like they need to “train someone” to replace you.
