Im not sure if that was a mistype or??? but the net growth is nowhere near that at Frontier. We have 13 deliveries remaining this year and 23 next year. Total 36 excluding any retirements.
I would expect oct. but it all depends on how many block hours they run. Tariff game could be starting up again so who knows?
I certainly have no idea there.
yup, i got numbers mixed up, typed up when i was busy. At 191 airplanes - 14 per plane that would put us around 2600-2700 pilots. 12.5 would put us at 2300-2400.
if we keep 14 per plane I think hiring will resume this year. If they decide to try to drop pilot to plane ratio hiring probably won’t start until 2026.
also, no one except actual decision makers at airlines having any clue on what the future holds at these companies. No middle management has any better idea of a merger of liquidation than we do. So yah, we are all fools reading tea leaves.
