You are not correct. In this particular case, the NW scale starts at less than 34K while the DL scale starts at 49K. Furthermore, most TWU dispatchers make less than the PAFCA dispatchers.

The only highly paid TWU dispatchers are at UPS, US and now Southwest. PAFCA only represents UAL, Delta and ASA. We can discount ASA for purposes of this discussion. UPS pays near 60k to start and that is the best contract going. The payscales for US, SWA, DL and UAL are fairly close, starting btwn 45-49K.

CO, NW, AA, AS all start under 40k and don't really close the gap.

I've been a TWU dispatcher, and the only thing they got going for them is collecting dues.

TWU sucks - I still get their rag and all they are is a democratic front machine, or so it seems - but they probably do well with all the bus drivers they represent.

Yeah, they're terrible. That stupid union went and negotiated my industry-leading contract, took the worlds largest and most profitable transportation company to arbitration to protect my fellow brothers & sisters, had our backs while we organized against Brown, went to DC to protect what is still my profession and stopped the effort to contract out operational control, and has the nerve to charge me 2 hours pay each month! I sure wish they would do more than collect dues at my airline, because with the dedicated help of the members in my local/section working together with the ATD & International we could set the standard for the entire industry.......oh wait......
