There is NO job security over the whole career at any airline. Some are fortunate to have a career that has job security, but it is not something that can be guaranteed. My prospect was immediate furlough...probably for at least three years. At least this way..if there have to be furloughs (and i really hope there are not) at SWA, it will truly be a SWA pilot...and not a F9 pilot that gets thrown to the curb.I am sorry you feel that way. Many others I am sure would have taken job security over their whole careers, looked at projected earnings and 401K contributions, perhaps even looked at the flexibility of working for a bigger airline would have provided.
Many pilots make decisions to work for a company that provides what SWA and others do. Good luck not being at the bottom of a company like SWA and reaching your career expectations at the new F9.
