New SkyWest Proposed Pay Package Riding Coattails of ASA/XJT
Your welcome, SkyWest.
CRJ Pay Rates
• Captain base rate increase of 1.5%.
• First Officer* base rate increase of 1.0%
• BHO split and increase for CRJ Captains and FOs
• CRJ 700 BHO increased from 5% to 6%
• CRJ 900 BHO increased from 5% to 8%
• EMB 170/175 rate no longer included
EMB Pay Rates
• Captain base rate increase of 3.0%.
• First Officer* base rate increase of 8.0 %
FO Pay Scales Extended
• First Officer pay scales for CRJ and EMB extended from 7 years to 8 years.
Additional yearly increase for ALL* pay scales
• Additional 1.5% increase on Jan 1, 2012
• Additional 1.5% increase on Jan 1, 2013
Productivity Improvements
• Minimum Daily Guarantee for all pilots increased from 3:45 (3.75 hrs) to 3:57 (3.95 hrs).
(Effective April 1, 2011)
▫ Reserves will be scheduled 19 duty days per bid period.
▫ Reserves must still reach 75 hours to “break guarantee”.
Other Changes
• The Company agrees to provide language in the Pilot Policy Manual that will provide scope
protection for SkyWest pilots and aircraft. Initially this language will be equivalent to the language
in the ASA pilot contract. Upon completion of the ASA/XJT JCBA any improvements on the
current language will also be adopted in the SkyWest Pilot policy manual.
• The Company agrees to maintain a PPO health care option for at least the duration of the
contract. The Company agrees to offer health care benefits at least equivalent to those
negotiated in the ASA/XJT JCBA.
• The Company agrees to offer a 401k benefit no less than what was offered in 2010. Upon
completion of the ASA/XJT JCBA, the Company agrees to provide a 401k benefit no less than
the ASA/XJT agreement. (Differences in vesting schedule and discretionary contributions
between the SkyWest and ASA/XJT plan will be considered in the valuation of the two plans.).
• Per diem increase to $1.70 effective January 1, 2011
• Per diem increase to $1.75 on July 1, 2012
• Pilot only Policy Manual
▫ SAPA/SIA split of current Crewmember Policy Manual
▫ Pilot Policy Manual scheduled to be complete by 02/01/2011
• PBS Improvements (Anticipated implementation date of April 1, 2011)
▫ PBS option to bid down to 58.6 hours/month (lowest credit value to be considered fulltime).
▫ PBS option to request 11 hours between pairings in domicile (PBS default is 9 hours
between pairings)
▫ PBS option to put in a preference for composite lines (comparable to the Flight Attendant
option already in place)
▫ PBS default to limit the assigning of two duty periods in one calendar day (a pilot can
waive this restriction)
Does not apply to a stand-up pairing following another stand-up
