Be interesting to see how junior, or senior the plane will go for CA once all the planes arrive!
If by wide bodies you mean the 777, I can explain what is going on. The top half of the FOs were either 737 or 7er captains. The bottom half were 737/m88a or in pursuit of QOL as FOs.
The most junior are slowly leaving for 73Na or 320a but not en masse. I don't know of any that have left for m88a or 717a.
A large, large number are waiting for 330A or something that flies international.
Sorry, it is what it is. I bet Timbo hears this stuff all the time.
