RJ I think you're looking at Captain Upgrade (CUG) classes

No, he's correct. The June 20th class had 4 new hires. Look at vacancy bulletin 16-08. But hey, if some of you will sleep better thinking current attrition rate is getting noticed by anyone other than APC warriors, knock yourselves out. Will it have a effect? One day, maybe, as of yet, no.
People aren't leaving like many here are suggesting. We are climbing in on-time metrics, trips are getting covered, they are adequately staffing the growth, until one or more of those change it will stay just as it is now. Why would they change it? I guess people just aren't mad enough.

Y'all do realize that an upgrading FO creates an FO vacancy because we're currently backfilling right??

You are correct. It still baffles me why I get handed an airplane from another crew in Dallas with an OAT of 39 and no APU running. That's not looking out for your fellow crews, our FA's, or our customers. It's hot, fuel is cheap, so run the damn APU. Also, for our super Captains who are working so hard trying the save the company money, don't get ****y with me in ORD when I key up and call 'unable' when told to line up and wait when you decided to save the company $40 on fuel by calling for engine #2 30 seconds from the runway. I won't be rushed running the Before Takeoff and will burn through whatever savings you made making sure my aircraft and myself are configured and ready to go.

Yes. But I am thinking people weren't really actively trying to bail on this place en mass until it became very clear we were in a contract fight. So I think we're seeing just the beginning here.

Btw, ran into our Ord chief. He says we are moving out of L next year. Apparently AA is getting the gates and even building a RJ terminal next to L some where around the Alpha bridge. He speculates we're moving to G.
