Default CLE Base

Does anyone have any insight on the seniority progression in the CLE base based off of retirements? I understand it has had a senior history and only recently has gone to some new hires here and there. Any idea of a 10 year outlook for someone hired today? Time to get into base if lucky enough to get the 73 initially?

Have a friend who put in for CLE during a vacancy bid while in fleet training and was awarded CLE during OE. Also managed to request and get OE with a CLE LCA.

So the times, they are a changin'.

If anyone could give an update on this question I would greatly appreciate it. DOH of junior FO, and even the seniority level of anyone in CLE hired ~ 1 year ago.
Thanks!

Junior man for the April bid period was a Dec 22 hire. You really can't predict anything off of that, though. Its a very small base, when the next movement happens could be the next vacancy or years from now.

Cleveland is a vestigial organ of Continental airlines that loses less money to run than to close.

Seniority progress based on retirement assumes the company backfills retirees and doesn’t shrink the base.

Fair and understood. Guess it would also depend how long the company wants to continue doing -73 maintenance there.

Wrong, CLE is growing and not just backfilling retirees. Plenty of FO slots since post Covid added

In an environment where they’re desperately trying to get 737 captains, yes

If the new contract makes captain remotely desirable that may change. The risk in Cleveland is 2033 not 2023

Good point....apologies since my lense is padlocked on an age 55 retirement....which makes a decade from now, well, irrelevant!!
