If I had to guess, I would say because there has been no poor weather to speak of anywhere in the U.S.--especially the northeast.

Not a rumor. However we are waiting for the final blessing but all seems ready to ramp up. Summer flying will be increased for us

If the 300 new hires are for increased summer flying, aren't they a little late? If you figure 2 months for training, plus another 2 weeks for IOE that means July would be the earliest these new guys and gals would be on the line...well into the summer travel season. If this hiring ramp up rumor is true, there must be some other reasons.

"IF" the hint at hiring 300 pilots is anywhere near true, then I expect that the company plans to begin flying for United Express or Delta's going to kick another regional to the curb soon.

Don't know the answer to why or if it's late. Just that we are ramping up.
