Re: When to come back to canada
Get the Canadian ATPL back up and running if you haven't already done so, then I'd start sending resumes as soon as you want to move to Canada (since it sounds like you have the right to work here part of the puzzle in place). A quick google search of operators and their various pay scales should do...

Re: When to come back to canada
The short answer is probably yes. Depending on how many hours you have it is very likely you could slide right into a 737 job. The long answer, which seat? Because it's very likely going to be the right seat at year one pay because that's how it works here. Some operaterators have quicker upgrades t...

You are crushing it! Just like WJ's management.

Re: Swoop is Over Party
This was inevitable.
If the pilots wages were all that was keeping that airline alive, it was dead already. No mention of the doubling of administrative costs like executives, managers, etc. contributing to the demise of this company.

Re: Strike
I know that Accountant was a troll. Probably a troll paid and employed by WJ or it's 3rd parties.
Just a parting shot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Uv1xN91Wek

Re: Agreement in Principle reached
Hats? This was about hats? Make sure you get plenty of scrambled eggs on those hats. They look really good with scrambled eggs. Old timers will recall the laughs we used to have about the old, tired tradition of pilots hats in the early days of WestJet. It was a badge of honor to have the leather f...

Re: Strike
Who cares if the troll thinks they have won? They want a reaction not approval, no answer means no more dopamine. Stop answering them. Normally, I 100% agree with you. In this case we have one half propaganda that I cannot let stand and one half attempting to union bust. If account even exists afte...
Re: Strike
The ONLY time I see that clown’s posts is when you folks quote him/her. The ‘add foe’ option is great. It shows they post, but not the content. If all of you folks who stop feeding the obvious trolls, they wouldn’t be able to get whatever need they get fulfilled by trolling. Certainly a viable opti...

Re: Recent WestJet ALPA video for all pilots
It’s quite frightening to see that we have a bunch of pilots who can’t think dialectically. Instead, we have a pilot group who thinks in black and white and that their perspective is king. Unfortunately and fortunately,( depending on what side of the fence you’re sitting.) The company’s perspective...

Re: Recent WestJet ALPA video for all pilots
Air Canada is hiring as many as you have, and even at 85% load factor is still running a loss. Sounds like a sound business practice to me! You are being paid at market. The canadian market. Go work in the US and get US wages. Oh wait... the doors aren't open to you to do that. Funny how that works...

Re: Recent WestJet ALPA video for all pilots
You're worth a 4% raise to match inflation. Nothing more. When you get that, I can't wait for you to say all the posturing, bitching and complaining, calling the general public asshats, threatening your fellow pilots worth it. If you get more, you're giving up elsewhere. 3 1/2 week strike. (7% loss...

Re: Recent WestJet ALPA video for all pilots
3: I will change my mind when you give me a valid reason why you need significant raises, more so than any other group that is all asking for the same thing. 4: You haven't shown that. You've shown a general disdain for the public ("We can shut this down"). You've shown a general disdain for any op...
