1400
Approximately 1400 age 65 retirements by the end of 2021. Doesn’t count medical and early.
20 A330-900 deliveries plus 2 A350 by the end of 2021.
13 captains per plane?
286 widebody captains
Plus say 40% of the 1400 scheduled age 65 retirements are widebody captains.
560 widebody captains
So a total of 846 widebody open positions by the end of 2021.
Math in public. Feel free to criticize and correct.
IMO you can add well over 100 bypasses.

I can't comment on your numbers, but the actual AE Captain positions will vary for the next few years as wide bodies rotate into and out of interior mod lines. The 777 are being done now and the 767-400s are just starting. After that I think the A330 will be done.
So CR may not fill all the positions because not all the planes will be operating during the modifications.
