How many has American hired this year? And, how many had they originally planned on hiring?

Sorry for those who are delayed.

It was originally 2k+. It’s probably significantly less than 1k now.

800+ this year I'd assume. I started end of last year and there's about 1000 below me

A guy I know had the admin interview yesterday and was told everyone with a June/July interview date will still interview (for now).

2024 hiring 703 YTD date on the June 1st seniority list. Add in any June new hires and you'll be pretty accurate.

I think management was banking on a lighter version of the NEA with JetBlue. Maybe that is officially done. The flights are absolutely packed. I can't believe a management team can F this up this bad. How can they keep their jobs? We have been aiming to catch Delta for the last 11 years and we have drifted backward. For those at the bottom I would say prepare. Prepare to be underwhelmed by unity among the pilot group. The junior will be forgotten.

My guess is that management will be shown the door. Too many ****-poor decisions for the board to let Isom run it straight into Chapter 11 while Delta and United continue to flourish.
