If Endeavor grows with new aircraft addition, the upgrade time should go back down again. But what happens after all those new aircraft are staffed with all the eligible FO’s? Do you guys see the upgrade time trending back up to 3 years for someone staring today ? Thanks.

Depends greatly on attrition, the top 450+\- of the seniority list are careers that likely will retire here . That leaves roughly 450+\- CA slots for FOs to upgrade into.

There are a lot of FO's ready to upgrade as well.. I doubt we will see quick upgrades like in the past.

250 + “upgrade ready” FOs hired in late 2016-mid 2017 just waiting for their seniority to hold it. If our growth is only 20 planes at 6 captains per plane that will only allow about 130 to upgrade. The lack of attrition, especially to Delta, over the last year has been just as big a reason as the delayed growth for why our upgrade time has crept up so much. I would expect upgrade time to creep up again after the planes are delivered unless Delta actually starts hiring our pilots en masse.

The SDF base will probably be for United and maybe some American flying. BOS, probably for both American and Delta shuttle to DCA which Delta has announced to begin in September. The folks over in the brickyard thread said the Boston trips will mostly be single day pairings, aka shuttle. They will probably crew it with DCA and New York crews until December when the bases open. That’s my 2 cents.
