How sure are you? Because we have more WB aircraft today than we did in Dec 2019

even if they are all replacements, they are replacing aircraft that are not at the highest rate, and thus creating more CA slots that pay the WB rates.

Aren’t you the king of the ER will live forever?? If we parked EVERY ER in the next 4 years we will still have approx the same number of widebodies (ER included) that we had in 2019. I am guessing we will still have 25ish ERs running around at the end of 2027. We had about 30 jets paying top scale in 2019. That number will probably be in the 150 or more range by the end of 27.

I think overall seniority percentage is the only proper way to judge a "wall". A 4000 number seniority pilot today is not the same as a 4000 number pilot when we had 10k pilots. Given how WBA has been in the ~23% range, I'd call hitting 25% to be a mini-wall. Consistently hitting 30%, probably more like 33% as a nice 1/3 number, to be a real wall falling showing true growth in WBA positions.
