Upgrades will probably stay pretty senior if/when vacancies happen. Secondary vacancies probably will still happen as the 787 deliveries still happen.
524 Retirements in the next 365 days not counting pilots going on LTD. There will still be bids almost every month since most of those pilots are WB Captains and they will need to be replaced and their seats backfilled.
