Hiring Freeze until Fall 2018?
I just heard from someone who was in a class that EG came into and said we are fully staffed through 2019. They want 6 crews per plane. We are at 10. No hiring for the forsee able future. 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.
We are not even close to 10 CREWS per airplane. We are close to 10 PILOTS per airplane.

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.

I heard about him. Just resigned. I heard another FO left for Endeavor.. More pilots are leaving than they can hire. Their growth plan is going to be hard to accomplish with the substandard pay, schedules, and retirement.
