American to hire 1,350 pilots by the end of next year to meet rising demand for air travel
FORT WORTH, TEXAS — American Airlines is gearing up to hire 1,350 pilots by the end of next year to meet the rapidly rising demand for air travel, 450 more pilots than previously planned. (www.airlinerwatch.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
If United is expanding along with Frontier and Spirit and they are all hiring pilots, they are going to have reach into the Regionals to fill those seats. A lot of experience retired with COVID one of the reasons they cannot operate fully now.
Push may soon come to shove with regards to today's tier supply of relatively experienced pilots.
If they can find the pilots that is.
Interesting? I wonder how many they laid off over the past eighteen months of Covid?
And they (as well as other airlines) will LOWER THEIR STANDARDS to achieve it!!
Yikes, I hope that doesn’t happen
I remember so, so many years ago when I couldn't even get an interview with any Major Airline because my vision wasn't 20/20 uncorrected. Time changed all that.
