Mesa(we) is(are) screwed.
Looking at the PBS awards, quite a few CA's at DFW show their schedule as completely empty. Either they were taken off line, or much more likely, have moved on to bigger and better places. Quite a few Jr. Dfw CA's are now line holders. Did M.K. Get on with a major? When you see senior CA's and others who seemed to be lifers move on, you know the ship is sinking.

Just like 2 months ago Mesa was "filling classes" and didn't have a recruiting or attrition problem. Well now they do.
A valuable life skill is to be able to look ahead at what's coming and make changes if you don't like what's coming. It's called strategic thinking and planning.
If management doesn't get their head out of their backside and do what they've known they had to do for quite a while, make Mesa a desireable place to work by increasing compensation substantially, then yes, the ship is sinking.

Two of my friends at Mesa were approached by other airline pilots in the terminal this week. Both have been at Mesa for less than a year. The "recruiters" informed them of the $15k sign on bonus they will get if they jump ship along with $38/hr starting pay. Both are putting in their notice. The fun has just begun.

Has anyone thought of a flow or preferential interviews at a cargo outfit like FedEx or UPS?

And why not? Yes seniority is good and upgrade is good.. but as a first year FO at GoJet, you'll earn more than 2nd year YV pay with their $15k bonus for being type-rated. First year FO at TSA is more than the max FO Mesa pay. Plus they'll give you some kind of bonus (however a new type rating would be needed)
Skywest? Piedmont? Etc etc .
