I’m pretty sure alpa could have done better than a $0.50 hourly pay cut for 2nd year FOs. But hey what do I know.

so the question is would have ALPA come up with a better contract (better pay for FOs, and better QOL)?

There are no improvements to qol or significant salary improvements for FOs. I dont see why any FO would not want to sign on with ALPA. This benchmark has produced one of the worst pay increases for FOs than any ALPA contract i have ever seen. Not sure how the CA feel.

Its sad to see the FOs left behind in this so called benchmark.
And to add to that there are no significant improvements what so ever to quality of life. I wonder how the roadshows are going to go, if there is any at all.

Wonder how many FOs are going to leave. No wonder they didn't release it before christmas.

Is it just me or do the percentage increases not match the actual hourly rates??

I don’t think a lot of people have noticed the pay decrease yet.

Good thing the FOs got that $1 increase in year 2

What are your thoughts on the new AC announcement today and how it will affect porter?

Any guesses as to what kind of hourly pay porter is looking at?

Does anyone think porter pilots will make significant gains in the new contract? Is it going to focus more on FOs (since they are losing FOs)?

so did porter release the new benchmark?

Feels like its taking forever for the non alpa contract to come out. Updates anyone?

Any updates on when the new benchmark will come out and what else is going to be improved if any?

So basically no benefits tor commuters. Wondering how hard commuting will get at porter.

What benefits does the commuting policy offer at porter?

Any plans on an improved commuting policy? And anyone know when the new payscale is planned to come out?

So any idea as to if porter will get a new payscale?

Cant bid while in training.

Is there any guidance or standard as to how many back to back days of reserve one can get or can they just assign you anything that they want (i.e 1 day all the way up to 6 days back to back)? Schedules seem very disorganized and random.

Thanks

The problem with going step by step in terms of getting a new contract is that cost of loving catches up quite fast here and the gains don't seem much at the end of the day. Thats why the bar has to be set up much higher than it is now across the industry here; only then would small gains be effecti...

Any updates on routes out of yvr once the base opens up?

Any guesses as to how many are going to vote yes to this TA?

I was shown a paystub by someone who just started on the E2 and their base paycheck was just under 2100 because of deductions like insurance? is it normally around 2600??

is it true that the base pay for 1st year FO after deductions is around $2000 per paycheck?
