Lol Bede...you do realize WJ RIGs and your 50% OT is so far behind them it is comical. For example your 4 hrs duty credit has to be the worst in the world. Delta's min duty credit is 2.0, American's is 3.0, Southwest's is 4.35, United and a few others have 5.0. Definitely something to improve for t...

Does WJ seriously only pay 1.5 and not double for OT? Sort of. Like Alaska, American, Breeze, Frontier, Hawaiian, JetBlue, Southwest, Sun Country and United, the starting Open Time rate is 1.5x. However, like Alaska, American, Sun Country and United, the company often puts out Open Time at 2x. At B...

I think the point is no one likes him outside of a few Jazz hardcore loyalists who don't mind union dues going to Lincolns & trips to Hawaii

Reading through this thread as a fellow ALPA pilot...it's pretty clear change is needed. 14 yrs tenure is just insane.

What's embarrassing is they convinced enough Encore pilots to vote Yes to pathetic wages by saying they were going to shut down the operation.

Now they can't find pilots to fly their "grounded" Q400s so need to find some cheap labour from India.

Would they even come for such shit wages?

First step, try to get foreign pilots. Second step, start a new "Open Skies" agreement and allow US regionals to do point-to-point service in Canada. Third step, destroy Canadian aviation altogether. But US regionals pay literally double. Sometimes more. If they operated in Canada, those big salari...

Lol...I thought Encore was shutting down and if the TA failed they were done? Bede...JBI...where you shills at? Shill_Bill! Welcome back! How's Delta? :roll: For non-troll posters, it sounds like things are not directly as they appear - expect an update in the next few days from the parties involve...

As this "World Class Contract" ages like a rotten diarrhea dump fermenting in the tank of a B777 out of Delhi, what should the members that voted 'Yes' do? Resign? Get recalled? Go into hiding? Post a selfie about some shit about "Moving Together"? Maybe another video from the hills of the Taliban ...

Lol...you think Delta/American/United pattern bargains off Spirit/Allegiant/JetBlue

AC pilots are brutal at negotiating

There are 2 terms all pilots should become familiar with: Extended Minimum-Crew Operations (eMCOs) where single-pilot operations are allowed during the cruise phase of the flight, with a level of safety equivalent to today’s two-pilot operations Single-Pilot Operations (SiPOs) , where, at a later st...

Literally had the leader of the Conservatives party supporting the pilots and this MEC managed to come out with less than Flair starting pay "Conservative party chief Pierre Poilievre says he stands with pilots in the labour dispute with the airline" https://financialpost.com/transportation/airlines...

It'll pass because this supposed "industry changing" moment was a giant flop after the MEC turtled...

AC pilots...All talk...No walk

Good news for the mechanics is that all the money the company is saving on Encore pilots, it can go to them!

It looks like Encore pilots are happy with about 50% discount

They needed to capture some Kamloops flying

Not that long ago being a Flight Attendant was never designed to be a career. It was a job for a young, preferably female, attractive ( don't lose you mind, happens to be a fact,) to do for five years. At which point the Airline would hope you would move on, or they also fired F/A's for the slighte...

50% to US pilots seems to be the accepted rate now for Canadian regional pilots Jazz signed a 17 yrs deal out of fear & WJ is now going to sign a joke of a 4 yrs deal Enjoy being the laughing stock of North American aviation my friends. Make sure to chat with a US pilot on a layover and tell them y...

Word is you have to do a sim eval now to get hired?

Anyone know the details or why they are doing this?

Air Transat Flight Attendants rejected their TA with a 98% "No" vote I guess they aren't buying the management Kool-aid like us Transat pilots... Looks like the back end leads this airline when it comes to knowing your worth https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/air-transat-flight-atten...

Lol

Good luck to you guys, I think every Canaidan pilot group is routing for you guys to set things right. Then we can all play off each other each renewal. Win win. Oh, and want to call me a management shill, go for it. I think our management is top notch, doing a great job Are things perfect? No, but...

Crazy!! Anyone looking into getting FAA Licenses?
