That's correct. We have very few retirements per year, compared to the thousands retiring from the major airlines. 40-50 a year retire here for the foreseeable future. No movement, and being junior here is about as bad as it gets anywhere..we do have a very solid union (IPA).
Also, always keep two things in mind with this place-1) they HATE you, and 2) it is not an airline, but a trucking company.
