To be frank, yes.
Eastern's business model gives the opportunity for recruits to enjoy a lifestyle of having most weekends and bank holidays off. Their wide national base structure allows most of their crews to be based close to where they want to live. They are also home most nights and rarely work past 10pm.
Some of their pilots with experience of larger aircraft and higher salaries have considered their options and seen great value in the above personal benefits.
I can see how wannabies would dismiss smaller turboprops in favour of Boeings, however once you have been round the block in this industry you realise there are not as many stereotypical pilots chasing big jets as you had originally thought.
What value lifestyle? That is a question only the individual can answer after considering his or her circumstances.
