Plus since 2010 we have gone from 710 planes to 744 planes at the end of this year, and next year we will hit 773 with the deliveries we know about. Meanwhile our fleet was 16% WB (115/710) in 2010 and at the end of 2018 it will be 19% WB (146/773) . Ask your friends at Delta how their percentage is working for WBs with the highest pay. (The numbers are only counting WBs that have top pay.)
AA Widebody total is 120 that is 12.4% of their fleet. A330 & 777’s not counting 767-300’s.
UAL 19.2% - 767-4, 787’s & 777’s.

I don’t think anybody said they were unhappy. Just not as excited about whatever growth we have/ are experiencing. I’m more of a show me the money kinda guy. As I reach closer and closer to upgrading, it gets that much farther away. So nuts

I have been itching to upgrade since May and realized around June that I'd have to wait until the dust settled on the closing of the 747, and then I skipped the first opportunity in 1803 because I didn't want to train over Thanksgiving, and now 1804 had nothing for EWR NB. I almost bid 756 in LAX out of frustration, but fortunately cooler heads on APC talked me out of that crazy idea. I have my hopes up that the January bid will be sizable and include EWR NB positions.
