The new pay deal makes things a lot more rosy here especially once into the 3rd yr, however the time to command is an issue worth looking at.
Anyone joining now will have about 320 F/Os ahead of them out of about 600 flt deck, and an average age in the left seat of about 45ish. Some bright spark worked out recently that assuming no expansion or early retirements/resignations that anyone joining at age 39 would not get a command before reaching age 60!!
However it is a great place to work, with relatively stable rosters, nice destinations, new a/c and the new pay deal takes a lot of the pain out of the L/H seat situation. Good luck and see you soon
