ALL along we were told that DAL will hire in the mid 200's or 300. I dont think it should be a shock that DAL stopped interviewing.
In-light of a great quarterly profit, I think more furloughees (BR) decided to jump-on ship. Because of this DAL reached their quota quickly and by surprise.
Along with the recalled pilots, new-hire and flow-thru pilots, I think DAL has reached its 305 pilots.
Even in meetings, the Company stated more hiring in 2011 based on approval.
I dont think (I could be wrong) there are any super-secret plans.
See you guys on line. BTW, if you get a chance to interview now or later; TAKE THE NOW! You never know.
