Nothing has changed, 900 retirements this year and current plan is to hire about 1400 total pilots. AA has already onboarded 400+ pilots this year so far.
Seems so, word from the stans meeting the other day (after this "news" broke) apparently was still 1,500 pilots for this year. Will that happen? Never know.
