Default Air Tran Upgrade?

Any Air Tran pilots out there that could chime in on what they think the upgrade time would be for someone hired in 2008? I hear it could change either way. Thank you in advance. -skidmark-

The junior guy in Capt upgrade was hired about 3 years ago. However, upgrades are going to get longer because the company has slowed down the delivery schedule for aircraft on order. Current deliveries run through the end of 2011. Anyone hired after mid 2006 will need AirTran to place additional aircraft orders to make it to Captain. (That assumes no captains retire or go to other airlines, which of course, will happen but not in any numbers to make much of a difference.)
