Mana, for many the question has already been answered and its just a matter of time waiting for the call. There are a lot of 3-4 year FOs who can plug back into the US system with nothing lost. They would have been waiting this long back home for major jobs so they got to see some of the world and have an adventure, now back to United etc. As for the Capts, the company has made it clear they are all just hired guns so I'm sure many will be looking at better paying options with better lifestyle and commuting options. As for future hiring, I doubt there will be many Yanks coming over. The reality is that none of us would be here if the US majors had been hiring over the last 3-7 years and the current package just isnt good enough to attract (or keep) pilots with other options. Lets be frank, no one really likes the Americans anyway
