It’s all relative and you just don’t know who your “relatives” are until they come out of the woodwork first day of class!

Wide Body Captains;

With 777 and 787 combined...

Age 64 - 209
Age 63 - 245
Age 62 - 208
Age 61 - 130
Age 60 - 84
Total under 60 - 113

53 is the youngest WB CA

But as the 64 year olds turn 65, there are 62 year olds upgrading to take their place. So, it will stay like this for a while with the occasional "youngster" in his/her 50's getting an upgrade.

Not really. Only about 25% of WB FOs are 60 or older. The youngest WB FO is 29.

Only about 18% above 60, but only 90 wide body FOs 40 or younger, or about 3%.

I’d call that a ton considering we are talking FO’s.

Exactly. There is going to be a lot of movement on the widebody side (if people want it) over the next 5 years. Between CAs and FOs on the wide body retiring and also don’t forget there are still 20+ 787s on their way. However, I think a lot of people could end up choosing to be a Narrowbody CA instead. Yes schedules ect, but once you start factoring in the income with the new pay rates it’s very tempting to just go that route instead and make the money. Upgrade times could easily drop to 1 year for awhile going forward.
