Either way it's not "33% of the 320/CAs retire in 2019."
I bet by end of summer I'll be back on Short Call. Hate to do it but I put my bid in for ORD 73. I gave up making life decisions based on what AMR/ AAG might do a long time ago.

I asked KB, the guy in charge of Crew Planning if I would be withheld. He actually answered (a miracle in itself recently). He replied, that yes, I would be withheld, for 9-12 months.

Has CLT always been this way or has it gone in waves? I'm a MIL guy with a few years left on the old ADSC so I'm just trying to get a feel for the water at this point. Thanks!

It’s a combination of things...
CLT is the most livable base AA has. Mountains and Beaches within reasonable distance, mild climate, reasonable cost of living and taxes.
Tons of PSA and Piedmont flows live in the area, and legacy AA pilots still changing domiciles and equipment.
Even with significant CLT retirements in the next few years, I would expect CLT to remain a highly desirable more senior base.

Heck, 4 years ago I couldn’t get out of CLT to PHL for a few bid cycles...

I am leaving NC but for those wanting to stick around, voting has consequences!
