Another was in sim for a check, decided he was done, and told the instructor to take the sim off motion he was leaving.

For the night flying capts retiring, I don't think they offer the firehose arches. There is the cake, but most of the pilots there aren't going to wait around unless they have a strong personal connection...they will head off to the sleep rooms to try and make it through the west coast outbound.

Here's the way I see it.
We will see the retirements in three waves. The first will be the guys waiting for the bonus to retire and that's 4/1/17. The next wave occurs through the late summer as the 1988 hires hit 30 years of service. 1/1/18 is the third wave.
Retirees on 1/1/18 will get their sick bank and 5 weeks of vacation paid out and that's over $100,000.
5 weeks of vacation equals 175 hours times 300 and a full Vick bank is 158 hours times $300.

Yes...along with mandatory retirements, contractual changes that require additional staffing, and beginning to staff the -8s.
That said, if the actual number of early outs exceeds projections, that'll drive additional hiring beyond the 301 original vacancies.
