The pool of available pilots has grown substantially, especially with the number of Spirit pilots jumping ship, so it will be significantly more challenging for someone with those stats than it was in 2022-2023, IMO.
What's considered the minimum/competitive hours... these days?
I was under the impression that Delta only hired military, so if you were civilian you were pretty much out of luck.
If they hire civilian at all in 2026... is 5k, 10k hours competitive? 15+ or maybe more?
I was also under the impression they liked their new-hires to spend a few years at the wholly-owned (Endeavor) before onboarding them, or at least at a "competitor" mainline (United or American) before a conditional offer. Is that still true?
Thanks in advance.
