Yes, but BOTH of those companies were also profitable, and in B6's case the first pay raise was already announced at this point on their timeline.WN was once here as was B6.....tick, tock, tick, tock....
In contrast VA is burning cash with their -15% operating margin so they are much more concerned about making payroll and debt payments than talking about pilot pay raises anytime soon.
VA has an outstanding onboard product but so far it seems like passengers are not willing to pay for it. The planes are full but everybody is on a cheap ticket--not a good combination even for a low cost operation.
Just saying.
