Not enough to keep up with 2.5 yr upgrades for new hires. I honestly couldn't tell you. I know at least 4 for the last few months. Only from observing my seniority number. Not sure how many leave behind me.

Hey Guy!
On average, 55-60 guys per month are leaving for other airlines. Upgrade times are currently averaging 6 months, but it should be down to 3 months when we start taking the first of 144 new C-Series WondeRJets.
The new HNL base will be opening next year, First Officers in that base will go directly to Year 2 pay.
Good luck!

The disparity lies in whether they physically left in July or merely put in their notice.

I think SPA ALPA should poll the pilots to see what percentage have applications submitted at other airlines, then publish the results in a media release directed toward investors.

Is there really a difference? There gonna be gone in two weeks anyway. I know in the last week I have personally shaken two hands and said "good luck and have a great career". Both really great pilots and fun to fly with. It sucks We are losing a lot of good talent. Unfortunately the dorks and tools don't seem to be going anywhere,... Gee, I Wonder why?? I'm sure we're gonna have a "very interesting" group of low tier pilots remaining here in the next couple of years. High five Bob!
