I’m actually not so sure that Delta and United follow suit… The AA regionals can’t hire everyone and the amount of money that was just shoved at them is entirely unsustainable. It’s indicative of AA’s over-reliance on regionals if anything.

AA is much more heavily dependent on regional lift than both Delta and United are. Delta brought a ton of that flying in-house with the 717s and A220s. United is bringing it in-house with their large 737 order. AA can’t do either of those things in the same ways that DA and UA did/can do.

It's a good time to be a pilot with lots of opportunity out there, there's something for everybody who wants it.

Don’t forget the “any” upgrade drama.
It is the biggest, yet for the last three months they are averaging just 32ish upgrades/month.
