I would be very surprised if they will hire DECs this year. With the internal rules changing for the command base allocation, they are forcing new upgrades in those seasonal bases, and there are plenty of senior FO ready.
This week they are finalizing the training of those MPLs that had the training suspended due to covid, but many more are on the pipeline, so I wouldn’t hold my breath for DEFO soon either.
It all depends on future expansion, but the company is not growing as much as in the years leading to this crisis.
Everything is subject to changes of course.
