According to our ALPA page we have 1682 mandatory retirements through 2031. If they intend on staying the exact same size as we are at this moment, then we still need to hire at least that many in that timeframe.
We also still have additional airframe deliveries through 2025 to the tune of ~25 767s and ~7 777s depending on how many they have taken since September which will require another 400 pilots.
We currently have just under 6000 pilots on property. Worst case is needing to replace roughly 1/3 of that number in the next 8 years.

Not sure I’m following your logic here.

The expected 1900 pilots retiring was mandatory retirement number and current rate has been roughly 2x the mandatory rate. 30-40% of pilot group will be retiring in next 10 years assuming no growth. I’m sure it will be a moving target over time but safe to say a lot of hiring just for attrition.

As an outsider I was just going of the information that was available to me on a basic math level. Your analysis seems much more accurate. Which I appreciate!

Why would we make an assumption that all of the MDs would be parked without any replacements? Has there been any guidance to support that position?

Hate to burst your party bubble, but not yet. Seniority numbers only update in June, so with retirements since then, we are still at about 5920. Then we will have pilots retiring on Dec 31 which will probably bring us below 5900.

It’s actually 34 767s. So at current staffing rate for those fleets, it’s probably closer to 600 pilots needed. As you said, those deliveries are currently scheduled to be done by June 2025. With the current rate of retirements and early retirements, that’s another 800 pilots. For a total of about 1400 needed in the next 30 months. That’s for a net gain of 32 aircraft, not staying at current size.
