It means, if you believe the company projections, as soon as you have your 1000 121 hours you will be able to upgrade. If you come in with 121 time, you will be able to upgrade quickly.

Upgrades:

June: 8 spots open EWR

Pilots listed on the seniority list as of April 1st, 2018: 297

Least senior captain awarded is now Nov 2016 hire. Looks like it might drop to Dec 2017 when looking at the domicile bids page if they award all 8 EWR CA spots.

It's based off data any C5 pilot can see. The company posted 8 spots, there are 8 people who are bidding for upgrade between the Nov '16 and Dec '17 hire dates.

2016 was a high hiring year. 2017, not so much...

He actually does mean Dec 2017. It all depends on if the more senior FOs will have their 1000 by June, but upgrade is most certainly going to drop to less than a year.

It also may go even more Jr than that, since you don't have to have 1000 to even bid for a CA spot.
