ArcticFlier said:There's a difference between a guild (which is what is being talked about here), and a government run system.
Seems to me, a guild would remove labor cost from the overall cost equation. Might actually shine the spotlight where it belongs: On management's ability (or lack thereof) to run an airline.
Your retirement would be portable from company to company
You wouldn't have to start over at the bottom of another seniority list
Pay would be based on your number within the guild, not the airline.
On and on.
But alas, a wet dream.

Also what goes up can go down. You could be bumped onto the street by a pilot whose company went out of business.
