Thank you for the insights. Tough to compare apples to apples as an outsider. (ie. rough seniority comparisons at a specific domicile). Seems like its just an educated guess at the end of the day?

Thread revive... if one only has a 10-12 yr career left would the AA current retirement rate/seniority tilt the balance towards it being better for a PHX resident? WB captain is a non factor... so im guessing it really comes down to NB FO qol and movement between the two.

Really, it could be much less time to upgrade, but each base will be different. I think we are all expecting 4 year upgrades in statuses such as LGA 737 within the next couple of bids, like we had before covid.
There are about 13,000 pilots on property today, and half will be gone in 8-9 years.
Mandatory retirements as of today:
2022 - 551
2023 - 731
2024 - 837
2025 - 883
2026 - 877
And most pilots are NOT waiting until 65 to retire. I would expect close to 1800 actual retirements between 2022 and 2023 instead of the 1280 that is projected.
