      Right? There’s no pilot shortage. Like with every other labor shortage it’s a wage issue.

        It’s not just about wage. You could have great pay but terrible working conditions will discourage pilots from applying.

        Never heard my retired uncle say a single good thing about his work as a captain for a commercial airline. Cheap tickets comes at a price.
