Original Note:
Promotions ("upgrades") to captain are only based on a pilot's seniority. When a pilot is senior enough and wants to upgrade, they notify the company. If they pass the training, they are promoted. There is zero DEI component to this process. https://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/columnist/cox/2017/07/30/airline-pilot-requirements/520125001/ https://aerocrewnews.com/education-2/takeoff/learn-to-fly/the-upgrade-conundrum/
