Why are they so desperately looking for new pilots? Yes, there is a certain amount of retirements, of course, but this would not require such a massive advert and road show campaign over the last couple of months IMHO.
Could it be, that by far more pilots leaving the company than they can replace in a timely manner?
Brilliant question… many of us have left in the years post Covid, we watched our colleagues be treated like trash during the pandemic. Most of us have found excellent employment back home 👍 (that doesn’t involve sitting in a fart infested bmw to work)
