Voski. It's interesting. Lots going on and lots going on behind the scenes. Do some research.. It's entirely possible that right now would be a great time to get on with XJT... I don't know how old you are... but if you're young.. you always got time to change..

Our management and UA promised us in official company communications.

UA announced last week they want to grow IAD by 50%. The article didn’t mention specific UAX, but some of the cities are definitely in that category. So I would look there for additional growth.

That is correct. Unless something changes with UA pilot scope, they have to be replacing something else.

They have to replace 25 dual class airplanes in the UAX system. We don’t fly dual class airframes in the UAX system, thus they don’t have to replace any of our airframes.
Another FFD, however, will be losing 25 dual class airframes. Hmm... I wonder who that would be?
