I guess it is going to be one of those wait and see kinda things. I have read that one of the plans will be to cut back on the duplication of flights. I don't know, to me that sounds like a need for fewer crews.
It will be interesting to see what happens at the regional level. Will the regional carriers merge as well, since AC would own almost all of them? Will that create a surplus of experienced pilots? I wish I had a crystal ball.
Like you I am new to the job market having recently finished my training and it makes me wonder if I made the right choice to get into the aviation industry .. maybe I should have bought an ice cream truck instead
