It doesn't have to be. The scope language explains the category of aircraft, maximum seats and weights and also block hours, not specific aircraft. The C-series must be flown by mainline in our current CBA and the TA if it is to be used by Delta.
Yes, if you are talking hourly pay that is the case, but I am talking W2s. Even if we use hourly pay rates the percentages aren't that far off from what I was saying. By no means am I implying that Southwest pilot's are overly compensated. It is just that most of the rest are too far under for...
I'd wager about half for a second year JetBlue 190 co-pilot, decreasing to less than half over the years. This is what I was facing. Then, I little over half for an Tranny co-pilot. Then closer to a third for a US Air 190 co-pilot.
I hope everyone else can come up and someone else can hold...
Do you know what the co-pilots at Air Tran, Jet Blue and US Air make? In many cases about half and probably down to a third. I really think if you went to that pay rate, you wouldn't be saying how great the culture is.
And you say I know nothing about Southwest? Your rates are due to...
I agree, but there were incremental pay raises along the way, while others took cuts. What I'm trying to get at is that when you're a co-pilot at another airline doing the same job as a co-pilot at southwest, making 1/3 the money, it doesn't matter how much free pizza and unpaid time off you...
So does Delta and ASA. I'm just saying, without the pay, the culture really isn't important, and Southwest gets paid. Ford and Harrison are there to simply to reduce employee costs usually through avoiding unions.
Yes, Southwest was an interview factory with only a given number of slots for new hires depending on the day. They would purposely bring in far more candidates than they had room for. That's fine. I had a JetBlue interview, on the day Southwest asked to interview. I elected to postpone my...
What makes the culture so great is how well the Southwest pilots are compensated. With good will alone, you are JetBlue or Skywest pilots. It's all about the total compensation.
I am looking into nonrevin/jumpseating from MSP to YVR. Can the Compass 76 seat E175 make it full of people and bags? I know the E190 I used to fly at JetBlue could, but that thing had bigger engines.
