At AA you still have 16-20 year FOs, and off the street hiring is effectively at a standstill for the rest of 2016. And this is all before the effects of SLI have been taken into account.

Mink,
Delta had nowhere near the furloughs we had. Plus, their work rules for senior WB FOs are so dang good that they make more than NB CAs. Hence, their quick upgrade time.
UAL, on the other hand, did have almost as many furloughs as we did. Take a look at their current upgrade - Jan '00, almost identical to ours. There's your answer.
Once we merge the SLI, the AA upgrade will drop to just over a year (E190.) Now factor in PBS, and you'll start seeing 3-5 year 737/A320 upgrades.
It's coming, and a lot quicker than you think.
