Reasons for saying this

People leaving for Delta and other majors will continue to create movement.

First officers with CJO's at Delta will soon start moving there as early as next year and some will skip the upgrade now that the money part is there and they will enjoy the quality of life as a senior first officer before moving on to Delta.

The major airlines will start to look more closely at regional first officers again increasing attrition.

The company will be bring CRJ 200 back out of the desert in the fall to begin growing with the idea of being about 150 airplanes strong.

For those looking at which regional to go too consider Endeavor. Best money in the industry as well as the much needed upgrade to captain is coming.

The thing with bonuses is they can be stopped at anytime. I think people at endeavor (and else where) should ask why a bonus and not a increase to base? Simple answer is a bonus can be stopped a base increase can't.

35 CA vacancies, with now downgrades. This is the first pure vacancy notice in a long while. Endeavor has turned the corner new hires are showing up and now you will upgrade time drop like a rock. If you get hired today within 2 years you should have the opportunity.

About a year ago they were so arrogant to believe pilots would come work for them just to get a delta interview .With companies like PSA, Compass , and others
growing with quick upgrades they had
no choice but to turn things around or
shut the doors..

It's hardly Skywests fault Delta didn't offer you base wage increases. Your argument is almost comical. It's not always someone else's fault.
