4% of "domestic capacity" not the entire airline. Also most of this is coming from off-peak, lower demand days, so there will still be a need to keep hiring. United is adding international since we are adding 787s without retiring any widebody planes. 7 more 787s still to be delivered by the end of 2025 on top of the 6 we have already received since November.

We will still have to hire/train to replace retirements. I understand you are trying to "bistromath" this, but we will almost certainly be hiring/training after the summer because of training backfills from retirements.
