Maybe by the end of the year .. but not in the short term. Unless a bunch of junior guys jump to AC .. time will tell.
Re: Transat AT seeking additional government funding after reporting $114.3M Q1 loss
Lots of junior pilots have already left and are flying at other jobs. They've kept their place at AT in case their new jobs don't work out well enough. The company won't know they've left until they get a recall and deny it.

I know a few who recently resigned to go DEC at Swoop. Many have been recently called by AC for an interview; once job offers will be sent in a few weeks or months Air Transat will have a hard time; and the management is well aware of this problem pending…
Re: Transat AT seeking additional government funding after reporting $114.3M Q1 loss
They only lost ~10 pilots since the beginning of the pandemic, including 1 or 2 that retired if I'm not mistaken.
There's around 60 pilots left to recall, should be within the next month or 2. Most of the pilots on layoff or LOA are flying at a temporary job and will come back to Transat (training bond, waiting for other recalls so they have better seniority, etc.)
The only threat to TS is AC hiring, the rest is not an issue.

The union just negotiated a 3 year contract extension with pay increases of 3%, 3% and 2.5%. The deal needs to be ratified still, should voted on in May.

258k starting May 1 2024 if the TA gets ratified.
Re: Transat AT seeking additional government funding after reporting $114.3M Q1 loss
Considering the last two years .. I’ll take it ..
Re: Transat AT seeking additional government funding after reporting $114.3M Q1 loss
Holy christ. 258k is brutal. Get your head outta the sand. If that’s brutal you’ve clearly made some wrong life choices cause I know 100s who would line up for that in any industry.

Mr. "Offthecuff", who's head is in the sand?
Re: Transat AT seeking additional government funding after reporting $114.3M Q1 loss
I guess I do. Working an average of 10-12 days a month is certainly worth an additional 50K. Lets not forget, literally a month before the pandemic Transat boosted ALL Captain pay by an average of (if memory serves) 27%. First year Narrow Body Capt went from 103 up what it is now of $149. Not to bad for during a Pandemic. Wide Body also went way up, and lets not forget now that 321 pilots are NOT narrowbody pay therefore every single pilot on the TS property gets Widebody pay.
With this bump and the situation at TS, I don't think anyone expected to have a bump in pay at all.

Classic Canadian pilot defeatist attitude.
Sure of course you'll take it, but I hope you don't actually think it's acceptable in the long run.

That's less than A YEAR ONE A220 CA AT DELTA MAKES. In a country where you can live without state tax and buy a very nice home in some of the most expensive cities for less than a condo in Vancouver or Toronto. RAISE YOUR EXPECTATIONS.
Yeesh. Who cares how many people would sell their soul for that kind of cheddar. Still remains, that we are significantly underpaid compared to our global and North American peers.

Welcome to Canada. Let me know the last time any lawyer/arbitrator cared what a US company makes. Hell even Allegiant pays a year one Capt $158K US.elonmusk wrote: ↑Wed Apr 27, 2022 9:41 amThat's less than A YEAR ONE A220 CA AT DELTA MAKES.

Considering the chatter on here that Transat wouldn’t survive the pandemic, and are now offering a pay raise, I need to raise my expectations?elonmusk wrote: ↑Wed Apr 27, 2022 9:41 amThat's less than A YEAR ONE A220 CA AT DELTA MAKES.

If you read my post in other threads I’m advocating for unity in the industry so we can all benefit and raise wawcon across the board. Until we realize our strength as a solid unit, we’ll never see the industry you guys envision.
Re: Transat AT seeking additional government funding after reporting $114.3M Q1 loss
It's nice you come in here slinging feces out our house, but perhaps you should clean the feces off yours first. Would we like to be paid more? Yes. Given Transat's circumstances, it's not entirely possible, and certainly not to be paid more than AC per hour.elonmusk wrote: ↑Wed Apr 27, 2022 9:41 amThat's less than A YEAR ONE A220 CA AT DELTA MAKES.

Re: Transat AT seeking additional government funding after reporting $114.3M Q1 loss
Do you keep your years of service when moving to the captain's seat or do you start from year 1. I heard they have also removed the narrowbody payscale so does the widebody payscale apply to all the pilots of the company?
Re: Transat AT seeking additional government funding after reporting $114.3M Q1 loss
You skip to YEAR 2 after a few years as FO. I dont remember the exact number of years tho.Aspiredtofly wrote: ↑Mon May 09, 2022 3:13 pm Do you keep your years of service when moving to the captain's seat or do you start from year 1.

And no the narrowbody pay scale still exists, but it's in the event Transat gets A220 for example at least they still have a pay scale the union can negotiate with instead of starting from 0. But yes all pilots in the company are paid widebody pay scale.

Re: Transat AT seeking additional government funding after reporting $114.3M Q1 loss
Are there any hiring plans at all this year? What are the minimum requirements like?
