NWA/DAL 2000 Payrates

[BOOZENEWS]

Yes transcon airline tickets still cost $200 a ticket just as they did in 1985 but that is management stupid fault. Not the pilots.

That is correct. It however IS the pilot faults COMPLETELY for voting in concessionary contracts.

Is it stunning that in 2002-03 these guys really believed that taking a 40% paycut would really save the company when the price of oil was less than $30 a barrell back then.

You guys only have yourselves to blame for taking the concessions. It's not right, but its the truth.

These are '04 rates, but I think this is what you're looking for.

Inflation is a hidden government controlled tax which always increases. If you don't get it I am not explaining it morons.

And there is no such thing as deflation in fiat currency system. It is a temporary phases prior to hyperinflation, double digit.

I'm one of those morons. Can you please post a link explaining this gvt tax or can you explain it using small word (pictures would be even better)?

Contract 2000+ COLA needs to be our opener.

No cease of payrate increase each year either- that crap is rediculous. The payrates should continue to get COLA bumps each year regardless of the amendable date.

Those payrates are unsustainable in todays competitive market. Be realistic in your demands.

 

[Paul R. Smith]

I have said it before and will say it again


It IS NOT hourly rate we need to look at.
We need real facts. W2 at the end of the year, vs Time away from Home.
WTF......

They had that too back then.
Rates and Rigs.

I agree though that folks get hung up on rates and don't look at the big picture.

It takes 3 Southwest crews (on 3 seperate 737s)to carry the same amount of people and cargo as a 777 crew, yet the 777 Captain makes less than the SWA Captain. So, if the SWA Captain makes $210 an hour----3 of them equals $630 an hour. So, if our 777 carries twice the cargo and makes twice the revenue, there is no way he can make $300 an hour, which again is half of what it takes Southwest to carry the same amount of people and cargo? Unsustainable to ask for half of the $630 an hour? You are wrong. Now, we use 757s and 767s on routes that are common with SWA routes (like SEA to SLC, and LAX to SLC), and those planes are twice the size (757 vs 737) of the SWA planes, meaning 2 SWA planes equals a 757 or 767---cargo and pax compared to a 737, meaning $420 an hour for 2 SWA Captains vs one of ours making $170 an hour. Again, you are wrong.

It would be easy if it worked that way Gen, only problem is that it doesn't.
