I think there will be a small bid - maybe 50 widebody captains and it won't come out at least until the summer after annual business plan is made. Retirements aren't anywhere near what people were expecting (they are actually about average for a crew force of 4400 and a 25 year career=176) - average age of retiree still north of 63 (and that counts those that leave involuntarily).
