The lesson from Horizon Air (https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/horizon-air-cutting-hundreds-of-flights-this-summer-due-to-pilot-shortage/) and Ryan air (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ryanair-pilots-insight/three-months-that-shook-ryanair-how-cancellations-sparked-a-pilot-revolt-idUSKBN1EE2D1) is that some airlines' HR departments are stubbornly short-sighted. It appears they would cut off their noses to spite their faces. Some airlines can plan their staffing properly, and some can't. I would rather work for the first bunch. Poor planning correlates directly to poor IR and management indifference to the humans who make up their Human Resources. If they want to run their sh*tty airlines out of business with poor planning, I'm happy to help by not sending in a rezzie.
