Not sure where your are getting your data from, but it's false. My close friend just upgraded to CA on the Airbus....he's a 2005 hire and people junior to him are upgrading.
Note: He actually held 737 CA 3 years ago but was displaced recently back to oh....787 FO. However, he's going back to domestic as a CA. A lot of displacements at UAL right now BECAUSE OF THE PILOT INTERGRATION(it will happen here too for years). He going back to domestic flying, as a CA, because he wants to be close to his young family most of the week. Jan 00' UAL hire might be SLI equivalent to CAL Sept 05' hire.
