If that's the case, it's hurting the company in training costs and staffing with pay increases being the obvious solution. We've got major problems with our compensation if pilots are jumping ship for other regionals that should be considered lateral moves at best.

I don't think that's what he's saying. Consider this scenario. You want to work at FancyJet International because they have a base in Enid, OK. They offer you a CRJ class date three months out. PSA offers you a class date next week. So you come to PSA for three months of paid checkride prep before you start the job you do want at Fancy Jet. Pay increases aren't going to change that.

If new hires are bailing to Endeaver because of base selection and not pay, our recruiting department needs to do a better job sniffing people out. If I was AA, I would blacklist pilots that made lateral moves from wholly owns within the first year of employment. Tell the applicant up front too, sounds reasonable.
