Re: Jazz Pilot Pool
If you can get overtime the pain of living off $2000/ month gets a little easier. Jazz is a great company in many aspects, it falls short only in a few ways and one is starting pay for its First Officers. The pay wage increases for years of service is also a broken system. The diffrence between year 1 and year 2 fo is approx $1.30 per hr. In my opinion that is a joke and should be fixed. If jazz wants me to stick around now for 3 years as a fo until I can upgrade, the pay increases per year of service needs to meet my level of experiance so I dont leave to a better paying opportunity. Happy landings everyone

Re: Jazz Pilot Pool
Its 1750$-1800$ per month. Id like to mention that includes the 55$ they give you for dry cleaning. But 1500$ perdiems is not possible. 800-1100$ maybe 1200$ but youll only get thst once youre out of reserve 8 months ish.
Ask your friends and tell them give me the real numbers. Not the inflated 3000$ after taxes a month starting. Thats a dream.

Re: Jazz Pilot Pool
Pilots are jazzes most important resource when it comes to labour. I believe jazz should be reminded of that and show proper compensation. The unions job it to make sure that happens, so far to not very impressed.

Re: Jazz Pilot Pool
Spoken by a guy who took the job with that low pay in the first place. If we all walked away from an offer like that they’d be forced to raise the compensation.Malfunction wrote: ↑Fri Oct 12, 2018 10:06 am Pilots are jazzes most important resource when it comes to labour.

Re: Jazz Pilot Pool
What do you call the entire pml bait and switch then. What were the wages before that happened... starting 45/yr. Look at it now. We are doing the same job for less. I guess some how I offended you buy saying pilots are worth more. Yes I agreed to work here but I'm also saying the system is broken your attitude is why nothing will change.. Just because it is the way right now dosnt mean it has to be forever.

Re: Jazz Pilot Pool
It's been a long time I didn't see a classic spot on the GS. Is there still Dh8 bidding available, or are we heading to only have CRJ and Q4 ?

The classic is over staffed. I think 15 FO reserve lines in YYC.

Re: Jazz Pilot Pool
This seemed inaccurate, I'm told there's 3 and that 15 would be more than half the FO roster in YYC.PostmasterGeneral wrote: ↑Sat Oct 13, 2018 6:48 pmThe classic is over staffed. I think 15 FO reserve lines in YYC.

Re: Jazz Pilot Pool
Nov tends to be a slow month and same with the winter for the Dash 8 as well as Jazz. Being over staffed on the 8 hasn’t helped. 14 captains, 6 FO on rsv in YYC with 100h of time Bank offered in Nov.

Re: Jazz Pilot Pool
Jazz is completing the life extension program on the Dash 8-300 fleet as we speak. I would expect to see the DH8 in Jazz colours until at least 2025 if not beyond hopefully.

Well ”eff” that, in order to get my propeller fix I am gonna book all my travel with Encore not on those leaky/creaky elderly bug- smashers.KenoraPilot wrote: ↑Mon Oct 15, 2018 11:48 am Jazz is completing the life extension program on the Dash 8-300 fleet as we speak.
