I could see a little increase for fatigue or whatever, but 20-30 difference?? That's wild.

And a Swoop pilot will do it for half the amount.
Re: Who will bid the A220?
Fucking A we get paid more to fly at night.
And we get paid more premium to fly overseas.
And we get Nav pay.
And we get a blended rate when we do training or collect a guarantee, 1/2 day/night.
Why don't you?

Nav pay is paid when operating a NB aircraft on any flight operation that departs and/or arrives outside of Canada, the United States (excluding Hawaii), Mexico, the Bahamas and the Territorial Collectivity of Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, or other mutually agreed routes.
It is also paid in monthly guarantees varying, depending on type.

Interesting.

Every other airline in Canada as far as I know.
Re: Who will bid the A220?
And they're everyone else?
Delta, United, American, Alaskan, Hawaiian, Jetblue... even Spirit have various international pay premiums.
Maybe your "everyone else" are missing out?

Re: Who will bid the A220?
I’m certainly not against anyone making extra cash but to me it seems like a weird way to make it. Is following the magenta line to Cancun really any different than following it to Punta Cana?

Re: Who will bid the A220?
It's likely a throw back from when pilots actually navigated. But it still makes sense today since oceanic flights have extra duties and navigation checks. More work more pay makes sense to me.

Re: Who will bid the A220?
I'd be happy to fly in daylight the rest of my career. I wish I got paid more to work odd hours at night.
It takes quite a toll getting up at 4am, or working till 1am. Times that the body naturally wants to sleep. I'm envious of those who get additional renumeration for that.

Re: Who will bid the A220?
Some airlines in China pay captains extra to sign the tech log in stations where there aren’t company engineers getting paid to do it. One of my previous companies used to pay an allowance for laundry. I know people in non aviation jobs in Toronto that get an allowance for using the 407 to get to work. Whatever you can negotiate I guess...
Re: Who will bid the A220?
Wait until you have to do international ops/night flying on a regular basis.
Re: Who will bid the A220?
IMO Mexico should be included, but as someone else mentioned, it's what you negotiate...
And sure, Punta Cana is different than Cancun, maybe you're out in WATRS, no radar, over water, patchy comms, HF bullshit... whatever, international flying presents additional challenges and risks, and there are many more variables than doing a Calgary turn... over the Atlantic, to Hawaii, to South America, Caribbean... and in a NB... I want to get paid more, don't you?
Re: Who will bid the A220?
I always want to get paid more and don’t blame you guys for trying to scrape together a few extra bucks out of the contract. I just find the concept strange. I would argue a YUL-LGA-YUL is much more challenging than a YYZ-HAV.altiplano wrote: ↑Sat Aug 24, 2019 9:12 amIMO Mexico should be included, but as someone else mentioned, it's what you negotiate...
