Not really
Should not have kept hiring so low this year
and I believe we are going to expand that 717 style operation with crews and jets staying together, it's funny but we need to hire more people to make the operation stronger which makes it more profitable
We shall see

Will we be adequately staffed? With the scheduled age 65 retirements as well as earlies added on to those who have retired in the last few months, I’m not sure we will have more pilots for next summer or less. Hopefully more if they actually do hire closer to 1500 for the year........but it’s only about 9 months to next summer....

Do scores to pass the interview fluctuate based upon the hiring goals?
Obviously it’s still a tough interview, but does the limbo bar move up and down with the market?
Saw in another forum someone made that claim. Wasn’t sure if it could be substantiated.
Also, not related to the poster above

So overall we have a lot more capacity now but we also have a more complicated fleet and more retirements now, although we were dealing with retirements in that timeframe also - just not on the level we are now seeing.
We also outsourced some training back then so simulator availability or lack of availability could either help or hinder our training potential. The biggest burden I see is the huge number of retirements off the top resulting in cascading training requirements which can cause major churn in many categories as Pilots move up the food chain. I sure hope we don’t contemplate any addition to seat locks in section 6 as we already are lagging our peers in that regard.
It will be interesting.
