There's a decent amount of consolidation that can happen in markets that had 500-1000 seats a day but it was 4 flight/houston, 4 flights/chicago, 2 flights/dulles, 3 flights/newark all on RJ. Maybe they go to 3 hubs now with 2X 737 and 4X RJ

This a hundred times
At 40 I guess I'm on the higher side but how much more hiring is really going to happen ya always my question and has the ship sailed. If united has hired 5000 so far that as you say nearly accounts for all retirements then just growth ?
I know I've asked this a few times in different places but the just crazy hiring is terrifying at 40. At 20 it's a no brainer
Edit. The next 5 years of retirements only come out to 3000+ so we're already at plus 2000 hires in 2028

mid size cities like RAP, FSD, FAR, etc will lose 4 RJs and have them replaced by 2 737s, but a lot of the smaller cities won't see that.

Several of the routes were not consolidated into any mainline flights.

Look at places like Decatur, IL. It’s an hour drive to Springfield. We shouldn’t be wasting the time, pollution, or taxpayer dollars to fly a 50 seat RJ to a place that can’t support it economically and has a viable airport within driving distance.

Swindler: I think Brickfire hits the nail on the head with 2035. Do I/ you think JetBlue/Sspirit will be better than United then. For you/me ORD:EWR. I don’t think it will. I don’t think there will be as much growth there as you are being sold……I’ve made my decision already.
I get that but what I'm saying is in 10 years will 5 of those for ex be just shunted behind the hires that have occured already. This is the question I can't figure out

The post-covid hiring has been majority growth with maybe some pilot hoarding for future retirements. I don’t think we’re to the junior-for-decades part of hiring yet in 2023.

From: 18%er but I’ll enforce UPA23 to the last period.
Yeah, I did 5000 hours in the E145 and 8000 in the B737. I don’t get the complaints. On the 756 I’m always telling my fo’s how the 737 does this or that better and they don’t believe me. The avionics and VNAV are much better than the 756. Plus, I miss the destinations.
With 700 airframes soon to be on property, good luck avoiding it.
