I don't anyone could assume that - and neither does the company btw. Anyone not convinced, just read the last earnings call transcript. The company takes a financial hit for early lease terminations of 700s. That wouldn't be necessary if they were spoken for. There is always a chance to find a home for them but the conservative assumption is that they will go to the desert, China or somewhere else... |
We're putting 80 in class a month, trying to get 100 and our recruiting team had literally tripled in the last two months....it's not all for attrition, that's fact, not koolaid
|
When someone talks about growth just ask them what they know about scope for the majors...
|
It seems like only 15 of the 50ish UA 700s that are leaving have been accounted for officially.
7 for AA and 8 for DL. Something else I'm missing? |

They are hiring as many as they can due to the 175's coming online and us losing 60-70 a month. They better do something cuz all the CRJ guys are getting really tired of the "we need to be more reliable" with ZERO reserves. |

Great news for the healthy population of us United pilots fighting for space on 50 seat RJs in/out of St. Louis....I don't think it's been announced by company yet but starting approx 16 August, every day except Saturday sees the resumption of 2 x 737s ORD and 1 x 737 DEN in addition to the previous lone Summer daily mainline 737 to/from SFO. I have to guess that's not just a seasonal "upgauge" starting so late in Summer and it bumps some 75-seaters into 50-seat slots to boot. The things us commuters get excited about heh? Cheers, BK
Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk This is pretty much what's going to be happening with all the carriers slowly but surely. FWIW that's a somewhat common 175 pairing. |

It will after AA announces Mesa is moving all its DFW ops to PHX.... |
Regardless of whether it is growth or attrition, upward mobility is great at SKYW - at least as good as the next best regional out there and maybe even better.
At the end of the day I don't care why my relative seniority progresses at a rapid pace as long as it does. Hence, I can only recommend SKYW to any new hire. |
