You’re right. But do you know how long conformity takes on a plane when acquired? They don’t hire pilots and f/a’s to sit around and wait. They will re hire when needed. Why take a 15 year captain when they can upgrade from within on the 3-4 year pay scale instead.
Whoever does it will cherry pick the assets. It’s cleaner and cheaper this way.
