Honestly, as frustrating as it is, this will barely affect the upgrade times.

Also take a look at Brexit … it happened and arguably UK is in worst shape with immigration, economy and crime today than in 2016 BREXIT was the correct decision. I remember watching smug Richard Quest on CNN when it looked like a no vote. His expression when he realised it was a yes vote made my d...

The entire darts system should be replaced by a Claude/Chatgpt pro subscription

Yeah let’s not improve our contract and get the wages and conditions that we deserve … let’s just hope for this pipe dream that will never happen. This fairy tale involves Miracle #1 Complete Alberta sovereignty in a time where the Feds are getting 1M new Canadian every year and that demographic wil...

Also, a pay raise for senior pilots is a pay raise for all pilots- some just need to wait a bit longer to get it. A pay raise for a junior pilot is a one-time raise for a much smaller demographic. if it was 4% across the board, I can understand your justification. But this is different. 4% for the ...

So top scale CA is now 318.405 meanwhile top scale fo is 178.245 a 55% ratio ?!

And people here think this is reasonable and fair ?!

Mind you, Delta ratio of Capt to FO pay is 68% ... which would bring up the FO pay to 216.51$

That's almost 40K out of pocket of FOs ...

As a former Sunwing pilot, once I started reading the story, I took a guess for myself if I would know who the pilot was. After a minute of thinking, the one and only name that came to mind was Darren's. Upon reading further and seeing his name, I said to myself "Yup, that tracks." So for those def...

You sure about that? I have noticed the new hire experience drop a lot over the last 12 months. People who would have never had their resume reviewed 5 years ago are being hired and their lack of experience is noticeable in the flight deck. A lot of pilots with zero 705 time. There are a number tha...

AC has zero problems attracting high quality applicants right now. Especially post WG and WJA merge.

Rarely will you hear me say that things are that simple, but I will in this case. This grievance gets more absurd the deeper you look into it. In this integration bid, there are a small handful of pilots who were FO's at SWG who will be captains at WJ. For example, Pilot A has been a SWG FO for 10 ...

This.

I got an offer from Big Red after openly telling Jazz to suck my dick.

Lots of fear mongering and conspiracy out there, but as I dug into this here is what I glean from it. Here’s the plain-language overview. What changed (in practical terms) Transport Canada now requires more explicit consent from pilots regarding: • What medical information is collected • How it may...

Doctors prescribe shit all the time. That doesn't mean we actually take them. How do they prove what medications are in your body? The onus will be on you and I doubt it would be a doctor prescription that triggers it, it would be a pharmacy dispensing that prescription to you. Also, if per se it w...

Wouldn’t one of the unintended consequences be that some pilots will no longer trust their family doctors/pharmacists and just start self medicating? Or getting their prescription filled on a layover ?

Still people are tired of the bitching... especially from an airline that was about to go bankrupt. Also, the grass ain't greener elsewhere. That's just the reality of Canadian Aviation. I guess you need more year round experience in Canada to see how much the whole industry is behind here (rum and...

I actually enjoye working here and I get along great with everyone. But this company is antiquated. My attitude is not a dig at the pilots. So don't take it personal. It's a dig at management slow process in the 29 year of existence still running scheduling websites, payrol, and SOPs likes it's the...

It starts with the usual fudd - Airline is broke and can’t afford to keeps the lights on and the company is actually looking at layoffs/hire freeze/furlough etc - Our operating cost is too high, competition is robust and fearsome. - Canadians are broke; combined with “Muh USA tarifs”. That’ll be the...

Don’t forget your propaganda slop with dramatic music and multi coloured lanyards, bet you that management is scared shitless, they’ve never seen that playbook before !

Is it Wagya Filet Mignon at the Jazz MEC Office served with Château Margaux? Or more of a Prime filet with Macallan 18? Followed with a Quinta do Noval “Nacional” Vintage Port And Crème Brûlée?! Dues well spent especially after all the successes That for your typical office work days… For a special...

Yeah, the state of Canada and Canadians taxes are bullshit and we need to be paid even more to make up for it. Thank the real boomers for that one, and honestly you fucking children that keep voting for socialists and digging us deeper. You’re not entirely wrong but all the younger generations are ...

Negative izzat for the mods

Guess screwing over your customers didn’t net a profit share once again. Koolaid drinkers, when will they ever learn ?
Don’t forget, no APU air for you until the cabin reaches 28deg.

Thank God !!!! Finally some good news for the baby boomer generation. I was worried they were going to run out of money on their reverse mortgage. Maybe with the advances in bio tech we could see triple digit aged captains. I say we voluntary double the LTD premiums to make sure it’ll happen. #ITSOK...

Yeah dude these kids could totally afford a 1.5M house if only they didn’t waste their chump change on an avocado toast.

Hey kids, buy some Chinese generic glp1 and skip eating on the road too, maybe you’ll be able to afford winter tires on your per diem savings for you second uber jobs.
