With all these planes coming on line this year and the next, pilots leaving F9 and not getting the numbers to fill classes, something is going to have to give sooner than later? So if it is the distant future, will F9 be able to run their airline with the short staffing levels that we have already?
Indigo isn't going to give up a nickel. ...

As far as the FAA allowing any more deliveries, it's my opinion that's why you saw the memo about "getting the a/c more mx touch time, and carrying more spares".

44 pilots have left the Company in 2018 with only 3 of them due to retirements. By my count, 7 CA's left for greener pastures (or possibly an early retirement from the sh!+show). Honestly, this number is lower than I would expect, BUT....combined with the failure to fill classes and plans for significant hiring over coming months, something is going to need to give.

Not to mention the fact that average line values have climbed from 78.07/mo. to 81.77/mo. since January, getting pretty close to the CBA limitation of 85. Imagine how much more leverage we'd have if 38% of our pilots weren't averaging 100+ credit hours per month in 2018! Or the 13% crediting, on average, 130+ in 2018.
