At the first of the year, the 2018 plan was to hire 900. There were several very vocal skeptics on this forum.

For reference, 2017 hires were 645.

What is this "I" and "D" you write? Are you trying to portray their age/seniority in the class?

International and domestic bid statuses. Eventually combining to one (I) but some bases havn't combined yet.

Domestic can't fly international. International can fly domestic legs. And does a bunch of domestic flying on some trips.

D=Domestic
I=Iternational

It is a bit confusing as Mexico City and Guadalajara are considered Domestic, but Cancun is International. The contract allows them to combine D and I and some bases have done that already, and other bases were never split. The list is wrong, MIA is all international. LGA 320 is only Domestic.
