I’m in a similar position as well, if I want AC I’ll have 2000TT by early next year, currently on the E2. A large part of my decision is going to come from the new contract AC gets and if Porter can compensate me enough to convince me that the QOL my seniority here affords me is worth giving up mor...

Those bus drivers will make more than a good deal of pilots at air canada under the current wage structure.

Accruing YOS means Jack shit. Point is you are not getting paid what you are rightfully entitled to. They are getting paid E2 rates in the d-tip: 1. From October 2023 until Dec 2024 Porter Airlines will guarantee 3 cumulative Transition positions per class for DHC8-400 Captains to Transition to the...

Currently as it stands-flow limited to 3 a month cumulative from Q to E2 for both CAs and now FOs. Earlier in the year a number of junior FOs were able to transfer as they lifted fleet lock. Some Q CAs have bid over as FOs and have been restricted from flowing over as this is now counted under the ...

Dash FO to Dash Captain is YOS -3

So a year 5 FO would be year 2 captain.

Take the time to read though Westjet, Air Canada, transat, Jazz, flair etc… contracts. You’ll find that we are at industry standard. Interesting, I've seen some analysis that shows how much our work rules (outside of pay) lag compared to others. If this is the case it sure would be nice of our pilo...

I think I’d be more embarrassed if I were you, you were literally not good enough until they had no other good options. You think HR feels shame they had to call you back, that’s pretty funny. They were just filling in a gap and you were close enough but still a last option but you keep bragging if...

The makeup of an "effective training" pairing can continue to be debated but it certainly isn't trainers cherry pick what they want and flight ops management/crew planning goes "There you go. That's the training bid package. Chock full of effective training!" BC is making this seem like a 2 option ...

E2 should have gotten the “new” call sign. No jets if it weren’t for the heavy lifting of the Dash.

He’s referring to the absolute catastrophe of Dashport being the call sign.

It’s a fucking joke and embarrassing.

You are out to lunch. Groups of employees at Porter have been represented by unions for a long time now.

I hope he never works in this industry again.

Know your take off briefing verbatim before you show up to class on day one. The more you prepare before arriving at ground school the easier your training will be. Don’t expect to be spoon fed the information. Take the time to read the SOPs with the intention of actually understanding what is writt...

3 were from the last bud. So it’s still 3 per class.

No worries.

FYI, our FOAG language brings back all captains before First officers as captains can fill both seats. Once a captain, always a captain on pay.

You forgot the big one:

Porter=growing

Westjet=Shrinking

Not sure if you are serious or just trying to stir the pot.

This would not happen. Period.
