The instructor in my last recurrent said half of the 757’s would be gone by now IF the Max/Neo/Xlr deliveries were on time. The 756 should shrink to zero in next 7 years. 757 first, then 767. Of course plans change. I’ll bid off it when I start going backwards in seniority.

14 767-3 ( Heathrow special seating planes), 21 757-3 and 16 767-4 will be around till 2032
And after that, all will be replaced with 787s from the options batch and 321 XLRs

still 50-60 per week. You haven’t missed the boat. If you don’t get it in indoc, you could get ord on the first vacancy, likely.

Quick question on base seniority, as you don't see DCA on any of the class drops. How quickly can you end up in DCA, and on which aircraft is that (I'm assuming the 737)? I live 15 minutes from IAD, so any information is appreciated! I know it's summer, so data can be different this time of year. Thanks!

Does anyone know if initial trainees have jumpseat privileges, or just standby travel privileges? Tracking that United flies you positive space to and from training, just curious about additional training in between phases. Thanks.

you’re entered into cass right away. It may take a few days, but you have the same jumpseat privileges as anyone else.

You can nonrev on company metal, you're in CASS and you can jump seat with other airlines, but zed fares and extended family travel benefits don't kick in till 6 months.
