Anywhere other than SEA it is tight. They’ve hired 20 this year and that’s to fill vacancy’s in SFO, that’s nothing. There is no confirmed number of hiring for next year. When did they ever say they’re going to hire a ton of pilots and what is that number? Also a genuine question.
Plus historically, whatever number they say they’re planning on hiring, they do less than half that number.

Do their sincere intentions consistently founder on the shoals of fate? Or are they blowing sunshine up junior butts? I don't know.

Yes that is for q1 not the year. They have not released any hiring numbers for the whole year. And as others have said they have never hit their hiring numbers. But I hope they do.
So to answer the original point this was about, all our bases outside of Seattle are small and any movement however small has a significant effect. No there isn’t huge hiring planned. (Hope it changes, just not holding my breathe).

they said on the August pilot call that it’s gonna be 100 total that includes th 40 this year (20 in August 20 in the Dec class) so 60 more to go. That’s about right from 2026 retirements to cover for + 6 planes for growth so next bid maybe be in the range of 40-60 upgrades depends who they wanna parse the upgrades out
