Now they set the bar. Delta, UAL, AMR, and CAL need to quit bringing down the majors and start working for a real wage.

Wow. Not even working there and already drinking the koolaid! Good for you.

You might want to spend some time working in the industry and understanding our collective history before you go painting with the large brush you're currently using.

With things the way they're headed (and now that SWA is going to have to start following all of those expensive laws)...seems like SWA pilots might need to take a pay cut in their next contract.

Did swa downgrade some captains lately?

Yes, they did, but they get to pick up any left seat trip that is in the open time pot to fly for the greater hourly rate. Awesome if you ask me.

SWA has not 'downgraded' any captains. Every bid that I've seen has had a net plus of captains. Now, if you live in a senior base and are not willing to commute to maintain your captain seat, then yet, with the LAS growth, some bases are losing captain slots but I don't remember a net loss of captains on any recent bid. Although, I'm just a FO who isn't close enough to upgrade to watch it super closely, so it is possible I suppose.

No...no one has lost a Captain seat. The only "downgrade" is self imposed when if Captain chose to bid as an Lance Captain (Capt qualified but bidding top 7% FO in a domicile) to possibly return to a domicle close to his/her residence rather than continue commuting as a Captain.

No we did not downgrade anyone we are actually running a class of 18 upgrades as we speak
