No. The 777 upgrades were pre merger. 777 and 747 are about the same for upgrade now…about 5.5 years. Those that upgraded more recently than that are going to be junior in their seat for several years.
All other fleet upgrades are accurate post merger dates.
Edit: I just went back and looked at the charts and the “Jr Captain awards” chart is accurate for the most recent awards. 747 and 777 are very close…767 a few months junior…737 a couple years junior…as of right now. Who knows what the future might bring.
