I fear that this entire cycle repeats next year as they start moving people around again for seasonal flying. Hopefully, hiring picks up "enough" to mitigate it.
bottom line is nothing will change. Its a small amount of pilots, non of them are SWAPA so they wont care. Theyll say itll imporve with hiring and we should just be patient, its inly a few yrs other have had it worse, you cna always pick up in a base of your choice etc.
it's a poop thing to say but its true. Swapa does not care about this.
