Anyone talking about merging and seniority mergers, and where they would fall, I think is way premature.
We, Frontier, only had 630 some pilots in Oct 2013 and now we have 1000. A rumor is 250-300 newhires this year alone. (I find this one hard to believe). But it will be at least close to 200. And we are going to grow like this for several more years. So our relative seniority is going to change drastically. A snapshot now is pretty worthless.
I doubt if we will merge anytime soon or if at all. But if we do we'd be at least around 1400 pilots when it happens with the middle hired in April 2014.
