I used 2007 as a baseline for your last hiring wave.
The numbers are different for a Jan 08 hire. Still a line holding FO with an FO base seniority between 56%-90% (OAK-DAL). Upgrade in 9 years if there are no other aircraft orders/options. SWA hired a lot in 07-08 and I think that's part of the disparity.
The SWA crews received an average seniority bump of around 10%. The FL crews lost an average of 20% and an extreme of 34%.
