Re: Lynx Air Pilot Pay
All these ULCC pilots should hang their head in shame. Thanks for destroying a career for our kids in aviation because you're to bloody arrogant to sit as an FO in a better paying job. It'll be these pilots that are the death of aviation. Thx again
Re: Lynx Air Pilot Pay
Are you dumb? Some of these ULCC's pay their FO's more than the legacy airlines here. Do your homework next time

Re: Lynx Air Pilot Pay
Pretty sure Air Canada pilots are destroying it for all Canadian pilots. Negotiating 10 percent pay cut during 8 percent inflation. Captains paid less than jet blue FOs. If anyone was going to raise wages in this industry it would start with the largest airlines.
Shame on everyone
I’m sure there is a more sensible way to look at pilot wages in Canada but if we just want to swing our fists and blame each other….

Re: Lynx Air Pilot Pay
Not a Lynx pilot but remember when almost everyone didn't like the WestJet original guys for "bringing down the industry".
I member.
Good luck to all, though no shares is the biggest downside.

Pretty sure they were still fishing boogers out of seatbacks 20 years after that.
Re: Lynx Air Pilot Pay
Might be the dumbest, most ill informed comment I’ve seen on here. No wonder our wages suck LOL like was stated before, do some homework.

Re: Lynx Air Pilot Pay
Air Canada first year FOs on the 777 and 787 would need to work two jobs to make ends meet to live in Toronto... not unlike many other airline pilots in Canada. It's still a disgusting thought that this is the case.WellThatAgedWell wrote: ↑Wed May 11, 2022 8:49 pmPretty sure Air Canada pilots are destroying it for all Canadian pilots.

Re: Lynx Air Pilot Pay
Well said.
100k Capt to start and 56k for FO?
The only retort the poor buggers have is “ our FOs are paid ok “
What a joke. 737s /A320 Capts looking over at their peers doing same job for 2.5X more.
YA ! THANKS GUYS !! No thanks to you . However I get the need to get TFO of HK. .. but you are doing it on all our backs.
The industry will be better off when Lynx and Flair go bankrupt, and the remaining 2 can actually attempt to improve WAWCONs rather than being forced to use those bottom feeders as comparators. Oh, and Swoop needs to be be binned too.
Just callin it like it is.

Don’t know what the numbers are for the pay scale at lynx but your numbers aren’t right for flair. Again it’s people as dumb as you who make it hard to increase wages in this country when all you do is fanboy/girl over what I’m presuming are the duopoly in this country. Flair starts their FO’s at like 20k more than the “nhl of airlines”…. Pathetic. Pretty sure the left seat pay-scale tops out at 175k or something around there.
Do your homework and lookup pay scales before making yourself look like a moron.
Unless the union at AC decides to stop being in bed with the company, that airline will most definitely continue to s**t on junior wages and drag the industry down. Guess the senior captains there care more about their cottage and boat payments than the younger generation being forced into spending half their income on rent
