How many retirements in the next 4 years Sailing? Plus 2700.

How many is that per year?

2020-2024 forecast retirements due to age 65 is 2905.

2018 was 353 forecast, 473 actual, so approx 33% more than forecast.

That's actually a 5 year period, so 60 months. Comes out to just over 1300 per year.

Keep in mind that 5 years ago the forecast retirements in 2018 were over 500. As guys leave early they drop out of the future forecast and the net result of early outs is not much change.

As each pilot leaves early he comes out of the future planned retirements. 33% May leave early in 2023 but 2023 will probably have 33% fewer forecast retirements in 2022 than today.

You are exactly correct. Probably a good thing if people retire early and smooth out the big numbers in later years.

Thanks. Good catch. Public math is always risky.

You looking to do full time hotels or are you looking for a crashpad?
