Most of the senior people are captains by now, correct? How many pre-2013 hires are still FOs? It's just a matter of time before the last of the 8+ year FOs get their chance to upgrade, and then you would think that there wouldn't be an uber senior base for FOs.

It sure seems like the senior half of the PHX FO list is in no hurry to upgrade out of PHX.

I'm guessing a lot of those PHX/West Coast-dwelling FOs with spouses/houses/kids are not going to upgrade unless they can hold PHX/LAX Captain--they aren't going to leave for IAD/ORD or even Houston, or at least that sure appears to be the case.
