Don’t forget last time (post 9/11) some regionals (Wisconsin and Skywest) loaned the Majors money. And they keep there contracts and even grew.. post 9/11 SkyWest was 1500 pilots now they are 5300. My flow after 9/11 went from a 4 year estimate to 16 years.. hunker down. No regional will be the same after this..

Anybody heard any rumors or suspect that may be coming?

If I was in your position I’d stay put. The movement will be halted because no one is getting hired to other airlines for the foreseeable future. No reason to sit at the bottom of a regional with no movement.

It’ll all work out. Always does.

In hindsight, had you been in one of the first classes after the furloughs returned, you would’ve been at AA long before you made it to your current employer.
Impossible to know at the time, but the counterfactual scenarios are interesting.

We haven’t heard much from the company or union yet. Only that if we are sick or think we are sick, to stay home and we will receive two weeks worth of paid leave. We can also choose to self isolate and that will be unpaid or taken from our sick bank.

Furloughs
I have a military buddy that said he was just furloughed from PSA. He can’t travel now due to DOD COVID-19 travel restrictions. Would it be a furlough or just a MLOA? He called it a furlough but didn’t expand on the info. It seems to me it’d more likely be just an involuntary leave of absence since he can no longer travel.
Has anyone heard of anything?
