Written by Linda Hohnholz, eTN editor

United Airlines announced today, Thursday, April 1, 2021, that it would hire about 300 pilots as travel demand appears to be rebounding due to Americans getting the COVID-19 vaccination.

  1. United’s CEO announced that domestic leisure travel demand has almost entirely recovered.
  2. Business demand is still down over 80%, and international borders, particularly for long-haul, are still largely closed.
  3. It’s really nice to see that domestic leisure recovery and that human desire for connection is going to come back and come back strong.
