I think that it is worth noting the demographic of recent new hires. Most are older and from Envoy. I would imagine most of these guys are more apt to wait for a G4 in DFW or LAX rather than commuting to LGA to sit rsv as a CA. It will be interesting to see if QOL will win over money going forward.

I would be about 94% there and I've had my bid in since August. No movement and the bids haven't shown any FO openings there.

2017 + 2018 retirements (early 2017 tally)(base size nearest 50) -
CLT - 210. Base size -1550. 13.5%
PHL - 159. Base size - 1300. 12.2%
Assuming 85% of retirements are Captains 24% of both the CLT and PHL CA’s are retiring in 2017-2028.
For comparison -
DFW - 81/2500. 3.2%. 6.2% of CA’s
LAX - 56/1350. 4.1%. 8.1%
MIA - 75/2100. 3.6%. 6.8%
Retirements don’t necessarily mean movement if the flying shifts elsewhere (comment for people new to the industry).

That would seem like either a very small amount or a very large amount mattering on if that was a typo or not.
