Hiring on hold for about the next 9 months according to VP of flight ops. Says we are overmanned by 40ish pilots, but retirements will take care of that.
Glad there are retirements happening and imminent!

Are ALL retirements announced by FCIF, or only those of pilots who choose to have their retirement announced?

The FedEx ALPA page has a seniority tracker under the pilot services menu. It is apparently updated as pilots transition in ALPA records to retired status. So...it may lag a few days but it beeps and squeaks updates as the month goes by. Since July of 12 I have moved up exactly 150 numbers as of today. Take a look at the site, and peek at the other stuff going on whule you are there....

I wonder why FedEx doesn't have real time seniority list. Why does it just get updated in July? Anyone know?

You had to show me this. I plugged in my numbers and it shows 20 years for me to make Capt. Never been more depressed.
