I wanted to take advantage of the retirement wave going on at AA because the average CA age is like in the 40s at B6 whereas the average age of a pilot at AA is 46 with CA at 56 respectively. We have speculatory “growth” with the XLR making it a bus base and it’s already 70% Airbus flying if you wanna think about rumors and the 20+ year rumor BOS is closing. I don’t think it’s going anywhere. You’re gonna be splitting hairs on the decision and gonna do well where ever you choose to go. Goodluck
Thanks for the opposing perspective. How long does it look like it’ll take to hold CA in BOS right now?

Seniority is something I meant to mention in my original post…of course AA has massive retirements coming up, but my concern was/is that I won’t really feel much of that at BOS.
