APC shows 14 for Delta and 8 (CAL)- 18 (UAL) for United. These numbers should drop pretty significantly based on upcoming retirements.
If you were a 06-07 hire at UPS, it will be about 18 years to make junior captain in ANC. For those hired recently, it will be around 10-11 since there is a 7 year gap in hiring.

Barely anyone would retire early.

I googled it, and yes, at least that's what the other crewmember might desire. It's hard chewing with those false teeth (just ask my dad).
