I don’t get where this movement is coming from:

Fuel prices are going stratospheric
Consumer confidence is rock bottom
Covid mandates are still in place … and there’s rumors of booster requirements ..

I can foresee status on quo or layoffs… where’s all this movement coming from?

No, nobody is hedged (there is a more complicated explanation but AC is not hedged and not planning any hedges).

Movement is coming from hiring at the top (AC). Bookings are way up. Schedule is being restored with the exception of some Asian flying (China). North America and Europe and the Caribbean are all going full tilt.

I was checking out flights to Europe for the next few weeks and most are full (LHR, FRA, MUC)... Things are looking good for the airlines. Hopefully it keeps up.

For anyone who cares there are ongoing Jazz pilot AC interviews taking place currently throughout this summer. Just last week seniority numbers of April and May 2017 were invited for interviews. It would seem that these interviews are in anticipation of hire dates for Q3 and Q4.

Jazz will need to send 40+ per month Sept/Oct/Nov/Dec (slightly different metric if AC is running a PIT course every 3 weeks after Labour Day).

Glad to hear the AC interview process has spooled up. There will likely be 200-300 Jazz pilots interviewing at AC this year. 90% (or more) will go on course.
