That's a pretty arrogant statement from a pilot who's total time on the top of the heap can be measured in weeks. Things charge fast in aviation, for better and worst. AA and the rest of the legacy carriers have an institutional memory of the pay, benefits and QOL they used to have. If these airlines produce profits over the next few years, look for a hard charge for (some) restoration of the good times. Than maybe UPS (night) hub turns won't look so inviting.
