Talked with our wonderful leader last week while he was serving us BBQ. He served everyone some juicy predictions/rumors/guarantees (hah jk). He expects 30 airplanes and 500 new hires and even overheard mention of an RDU base... This along with DH upgrades and Delta MEC acknowledging us really has the Koooolaid tasting sweet in this heat.

I can confirm a similar conversation while I was stuffing ribs down my piehole. Another little birdie also said that hiring is picking up and we're going to start seeing smaller, more frequent training classes as early as August...with monthly tallies north of 40+ moving forward. This could be the big one, guys! (Okay, that's a bit dramatic, but nice to see the meter running for training)

May happen sooner. We are going to get a fresh wave of pilots leaving before summer is out. Jetblue needs talent and they’re opening their floodgates in July. AA is also about to go full throttle as well, Delta is fat about 250 pilots and sounding crickets, Frontier will be collecting pilots tomorrow and July, Sun Country is giving jobs out nearly over the phone. Atlas is parking planes they can’t staff... Strike while the iron’s hot chaps.

Delta isn’t fat 250. We may be fat in certain categories but it’s more than offset by shortages in others.
Our latest thinking is smaller, more frequent classes and the last I’ve heard or read is hiring will pick up again in September, post-summer flying.

Also hearing that aircraft growth could be closer to 30 planes instead of 20. Mark my words. If you're on the fence about dropping an app, now would be the time.
