Yes, those hired exactly two years ago are already at ~73% overall seniority. Insanity.
Can confirm that to be the case! Several in my class wanting to bid WBB but get to watch pilots junior to us get it while we wait for seat locks to expire. 2022 was a huge hiring year though, so I expect this to be a very short lived case with 200+ pilots (minus the few that bid A or used the 12 month exception) being released per month.
