Increased pilot hiring
LCAs for all fleets
Ground and Sim instructors
Increased FA hiring

Those are all known quantities. If our growth was tapering off as originally scheduled in October, we wouldn't be doing all of the above things. True, the average line pilot, line FA, LCA whatever doesn't know EXACTLY what's going on. However, all you need to do is look at the activity and put two and two together. Something is going on and it's like someone switched on a light last week and switched the direction of the company.
