Also, if any union were smart they would bring attention to the public and make the need for higher pay a SAFETY issue. Play the safety card over and over.
Think about it, you'd pay a doctor more to ensure you had the best medical care and you'd pay a lot more for a lawyer than the cheapest if you were falsely accused of a crime you didn't commit.
TELL THE PUBLIC THAT TOP PAY IS NEEDED TO ENSURE THEM A SAFE FLIGHT!!
Nice thought but unrealistic. Doctors kill a lot more people each year than pilots. Doubtful anyone sees a trip to the islands on some low-cost outfit in the same light as getting cut on by a cut-rate surgeon.
All the public knows/cares is what the ticket costs. If there were aircraft flown by low paid pilots falling out of the sky on a regular basis, maybe you could get folks to start looking at the qualifications of the pilots flying them around. Until then, it's all about the ticket price.
