I'd say some already on the list will be at 10+....especially those not hired yet.
Only caveat is our junior trips are most airlines senior trips. So it kind of could equal that it.
Riverside, every guys situation is different.. i am the sole provider of a family of 4. Two kids in private school, mortgage in Hawaii, food clothing, utilities. Most likey my general bills are more than your take home check (if you are indeed in the 145 still).
For me it is about the money. And many others like me.

Think you're confused, I enjoy Hawaiian, have no plans on leaving.
I happen to like the type of flying we do, 2 day trips, or 3. No weather, predictable report and end times. I also enjoy 98% of the guys I fly with.
Will ai chase an upgrade at Hawaiian. Sure...
Will I uproot my family, and QOL in Hawaii to go to Delta to be based in Atlanta and deal with all the hussle and bustle. **** no. I spent my first 10 years of flying dealing with all that. Not worth it. Ill get back to Hawaii tomorrow mid morning. It'll be 80 degrees, probably sunny, scoop the kids up from school at 2, and be eating dinner under the lights of tiki torches and fire pits.
****, 10 years ago SWA was the only place to be. This industry is too cyclical to chase jobs. Find the place you enjoy and stick it out.

.Hawaiian fits me so I would not consider moving on to chase more money at Delta or United.
But I would sacrafice some QOL to upgrade and make more money AT Hawaiian.

Latest bid closes Monday but has openings in all 3. More clarity once it’s published but almost guaranteed the 717 and 321 will be the majority of new hire slots and possibly some 330 slots. There is a two year seat lock on initial assignment.

Big whack of 330 spots surprisingly. Pity first year pay (and the big deal that’s put on probation) is so cr@p.
