I think all it really means is that we are still taking deliveries of aircraft and need some additional pilots. Those 36 CR9's are firm, so staffing for them is not affected by fuel. Anything speculation of growth beyond that is just a swag. A lot of variables are in play with the merger scenario. Time to preference bid to an airframe (if able) and domicile you are comfortable with for a long while.
