Here is your reason why the hiring freeze. Nothing more and nothing less.


By Victoria Bryan, Reuters. “Lufthansa is due to receive five A320neo jets this year, a spokeswoman said on Thursday, half the number it originally expected, as delivery delays hamper the Airbus plane. Lufthansa, which was the first airline to operate the A320neo and took delivery of five of the jets in 2016, had said at the end of December that it expected 10 of the medium-haul planes this year.”

No need for pilot recruitment until the fall? Think the company will honor it's obligation under LOA67 next week?

No. The company will drag this out and fight as much as they can. It does look like Airbus is having delivery delays on NEOs, so I'm guessing that's the reason for the hiring pause.

But last year we had a May and June class, only skipped July, then started again in August.

ummmmm...Lufthansa's neo's have the Pratt engines...which are crap and pretty sure that's the delay reason. How's that affect us since our neo orders are CFM's. What am I missing?

The CFM neo's are becoming very desirable. We got lucky.

Yeah, our class in May only had 6. Seems like there were 16 for June, no class in July & I can't remember about August.
