      The senior first officers are noting QoL issues as the major reason they are not choosing to be junior captains. If a 40% increase in salary isn’t enough to get people to make the jump, maybe the solution is to change the quality of life for junior captains.

      It might also be cheaper for the airline to make the cutoff more flexible in a way that is acceptable to the pilots’ union.
