Nobody is leaving a major to come back to NJ. In fact I don't know anyone who has left JB, Spirit, Frontier, and even the few Allegiant guys are staying put. With the 10 year FO pay cap the long term money would be better at any of the LCCs and of course the Majors.
Bail pilots out when they get dui's. Sort of like a training contract. We bail you out and you fly rubber dog poop to Mexico for a year. And do reverse college reimbursement. Pay them 2 grand a year to not go to college.
Back on topic. They have sent out 105 first time recalls for the Sept...
Yeah people are bailing NJ like crazy. I think it was a whopping 9 this month and 6 of them were old farts retiring. Current NJ pilots all talk bad about NJ but they will never leave.

The only thing we can know is the seniority of those leaving. Over the past 4 months it has been 75 percent captains. I know several of them were AA or DL recalls. I am sure most FOs are looking at the majors but that is still a tough nut to crack.
job fair...... then long application or nothing...then phone interview or nothing...then psych test or nothing....in person interview... I have heard of people getting long app 24 hours after job fair or 6 months after job fair
Probably, I was just relaying what was said at the job fair. I think he was saying the Europe thing to make the job more attractive but the room was full of 121 regional guys who freak out over anything longer than a 4 day trip.
He was apologetic about pay and such and said commuting really doesn't work out so you need to live in South Florida and basically said Miami Air is just a SWA training academy and like a lot of places FO attrition is high and Captains never leave.
The Miami Air Chief Pilot spoke at the job fair in FLL Friday. Interviews in April for a class of 4 in May. They are doing TDYs this summer to Amsterdam or somewhere in Europe.
