A few friends here at UA were just talking about this. I just looked up a pilot who is 44 hired 3 months ago. He never gets below 5100 on the list and that's with 21 years at UA assuming age 65 holds. Missing the boat is all relative. I can tell you that a majority of pilots United has hired are 35 and below the last 2.5 years. The numbers will only get worse 2024 and beyond. You could be 44+ in 2024 and never go lower then 7000-7500 which is crazy. There was a female I ran into in EWR 2018 she had just turned 23. She spends 21 years under 900 on the list. I was talking to a 25 year old last week in Denver just hired. He only spends 4.5 years below 900. Timing is everything as we all know.
