Just from reading on some avcanda forums. It's "not that impressive"

The Jazz rates are on their page in the profiles section. Keep in mind the exchange rate.

It's virtually 1-1. It was 1 USD = 1.03 CAD earlier this week.

In that case it would appear the Jazz Q guys are doing quite well.

Love those payrates compared to same equipment over here. I think the Porter guys have EFB's as well. I guess a small turbo-prop operator can have EFB's but a "Super" regional cannot.

One of our ex tsa guys went over to porter. He said it was night and day compared to US regionals.

Like republic?

The FO pay scales are better in Canada, not so much on the captain side. I'll still take our lower cost of living.
