Im betting half will stay on ... even fewer will stay the full 5 years. But thats just me thinking.....

I think it depends on the airline. The guys at delta seem happy and more of them might stay longer. The usair east guys are so miserable and are begging to find a way out while still being able to afford to retire. My guess is as soon as they can afford it theyll be dropping like flies.

Good point killer.... quality of the employer might influence more to stay....... or lack of percieved quality of life might just make that guy leave at 60 or shortly there after rather than endure the pain.....
