It would have been nice to see a couple of CA/FO openings for the 330 or other wide bodies. Hopefully some senior FO's will finally upgrade.

"The 7ER block hours will peak in July and decrease by 25 percent by the time we reach December 2014."
Currently 1493 7ER capt - 25% = 373 displacements
Currently 1791 7ER F/O - 25% = 447 displacements
YIKES
That is a lot of people bidding and displacing to lower paying jobs.
And yes we will have the 330 coming on property in 2015 but they will barely offset the the above reduction.
For comparason purposes, here's UALs January Bid:

With over 300 Capts being displaced off of the 7ER beginning in August 2014, I think most Capt positions in any category will be bid by existing 7ER capts.

It's always "next year" the retirements will kick in. Same old s--t, different day.

This is the most disturbing part of AE.
"The 7ER block hours will peak in July and decrease by 25 percent by the time we reach December 2014."
Currently 1493 7ER capt - 25% = 373 displacements
Currently 1791 7ER F/O - 25% = 447 displacements

I doubt that there are ANY displacements from the 7ER in December, and if there are any, they will be modest.

There will be zero captains displaced off the 7ER "beginning in August." Where do you get this stuff? If you are bound and determined to be depressed, no one can stop you.
