Don't think it will be that long if you want to wrestle a Douglas product in and out of NYC. It went so junior per merger that we very nearly had some 2 year upgrades ... for one bid only 14 pilots senior to me actually bid it.
The A320 and the MD88 will be a pretty quick upgrade for those willing to commute (not me).

As an 08 hire, I'm looking at a 16 year upgrade. Fantastic!!!

I predict the eventual 717A - NYC going so junior that soon you & 80Kts will be able to 'buddy bid' it.

We don't like percentage methods of merging lists and have never employed it. We do however like ratios by category and status which is essentially how the last three mergers were done. The exception was the NWA merger where category and status were used with the addition of a retirement credit on the NWA side. I would be quite happy if they used the exact same method in a merger with AS. Sadly I believe that merger is going to happen sooner rather then later.

I bet I'll be on the 10-11 year first chance upgrade plan for ATL, which is far better than the 2000-2001 hires that are looking at 16-17 years minimum. Hockey of course was being overly negative as usual by a factor of at least 1.5
