They boned up hiring to prepare for the transition bubble and will let attritian even things out. Sorry to burst your bubble. Basic economics. Nothing to see here.

This is looking a little like 2011-2013, when hiring slowed to a crawl and upgrade jumped from 2 to 5+ years. Not saying this will come to pass, but wouldn’t be surprised.

How? Look at the 2018 headcount on G4Connect....

The headcount is all over the place for 2018. Expect to see Miami Air and Sun Country at a lot of our gates.

With attrition and lack of pilots showing up for new hire class I doubt Sun Country will be doing much sub flying. Tried to hire 8 in November and only 4 showed up. Jude has made it clear that the pay rates will be addressed in the next contract negotiations.... that’s not until 2020. I don’t think Sun Country will be around in 2020.

2020? Good lord. Yeah good luck with that. I had a friend who was an FO there leave to become a street Captain at Piedmont. What does that tell you.
