Seeing as they have recalled almost everybody, maybe they would hire early next year to have folks ready for the summer?

Opinions? Thoughts?
Ordinarily I would agree with you. But with the merger and the current realignment into the United Express system, it seems all bets are off as far as staffing. My best guess? With ASA doing some hiring now and the way staffing is around here, you may see some modest hiring in the beginning of 2011. Any hiring beyond that is going to be dependent on hiring/attrition at the majors. Seems like most people who are going to jump ship already have. The folks left here now are either lifers or treading water until hiring picks up at the majors and they are in a position to move on. The floodgates won't be open again until the age 65 retirements starting having an effect at the majors.
