Long overdue for an upgrade? No, they are not overdue. They do not automatically qualify to be a JFO they have to earn it when the time comes and they can qualify. If that takes another 5 years then so be it. I know there is one rather fresh JFO complaining about not being allowed to go directly to FO pay. Entitled iCadets...
As for VN etc... Good luck, please tell me how you will do that? Do you know how applications from some of those companies are viewed by most airlines? They go straight to the trash as it is clear who has done P2F.
