Looks like a hiring freeze and increased aircraft retiring rate as well...

Hiring freeze is “frontline employees.” Not sure if it pertains to pilots yet or if they’ll use the opportunity to catch up. He said we’d hear from our divisions.

In other news perhaps this will be the death knell for Norwegian and some cheap 787s might become available...

I'm not a big one to wish or want something bad to happen to someone's livelihood, or to take away from someones ability to support their family, but yeah would be interesting to see how Norwegian fares this event.

Same here, don't wish it on the employees but the company itself as we all know has not been good news for the industry. If someone has to fall on the sword let it be the company that has actively worked to avoid international labor & tax laws like no other.
