Interviewed recently and was offered the Job at the end of interview. Class was to start the following monday but due to alot of issues that just dont seem right! I turned it down. It would of been nice to fly the CRJ and upgrade real fast but after hearing how low the pay was. Just did'nt seem fair or the right thing to do.
Pay: FO=22/hr
CA=54/hr ( this is for a 70 seat jet)
Monthly Guarantee= 60
No Per-Diem during training, No Hotel (u have to pay the bill).
class was going to be 6 days a week.
Bottom line: the pay for an 8-hr day during the 5 weeks of training would be right around 6.25/hr which would not cover the hotel bill. Was real disappointed to see what a Regional Airline is really getting away with.
Estimated pay/Annual salary
FO =16K not including per-diem
CA= 40K not including per-diem
Think About It? I would of loved to fly and become a CA again, but we are "all" supposed to make $ and that's how I came to my opinion....
CP informed us at interview that they will be getting 5 new jets soon. He said by June at the latest...No mention at all about the flying certificate and I later found out that Go-Jet has not received it yet.
TSA Pilots: Get your Union to start doing there job better! I would not tolerate what is going on within your airline. (just my opinion).
Dont let them get the final authorization to fly this "low paying" start-up carrier within a carrier at these wages! Get those nice 70-seat CRJ back on your property and the pay-scales that you deserve.
