Signs that things are finally turning around
Signs that things are finally turning around for pilots
Sign on and Retention Bonuses:
Envoy - $10,000 if you are coming from the “right” university
Republic – Sign on $7,500 - $12,000
Endeavor’s $80k over 4 years retention bonuses
Others?
Referral Bonuses
Mesa’s “Tuition Assistance”
Compass now pays for hotels during training and dropped both ME and TT Mins
I believe all regionals now provide single occupancy during training.
I believe all regionals dropped their training contracts.
ATP/CTP Courses are offered at regionals for those that haven’t taken the ATP written.
Southwest dropped their 737 Type Rating Retirement
Mins at all the majors have dropped.
Majors now hire FO’s with no prior 121 PIC.
What else am I missing?
Until PAY, BENEFITS, and QOL improves for pilots, young people will still avoid the time and financial commitments required for training. But at least there are signs that things are moving in the right direction.

there doesn't even need to be a huge deal about it.....take seniority lists and staple them to the bottom of the mainline lists and let us crawl as we are doing now!

"Compass' new hotels-in-training-paid-for is double occupancy. CPZ also still has a $12K training contract."
Seriously? Wow. We will see how long that lasts.
It will last as long as people keep showing up I guess.
