All of you guys saying that maybe just maybe the women pilots are putting in the work and that's why they are getting hired are blind. That may happen in a few cases but the overall majority is bull*hit. Minorities plus women equal 9% of ATP rated pilots, if more than 9% of each new hire class are women and minorities (which they absolutely are) that is indisputable proof they are getting preferential treatment.

Any truth to the rumor that FO pay will be raised again--this time to $40 - $50 per hour?

It's getting to the point where years 1 and 2 will be nearly the same if they increase it again.

Has there been any precedences for such in the recent past?

Yup, 2 years 2 months now. Interesting that ORD is where the most junior CA got awarded. It looks like DTW went nowhere near as junior as expected.

Heck they're up to a guy with a 48000 number as a CA now! Amazing.

Cruz, what happened? Where was your bid for?

The bid would have to be in for any training to proceed at all, right? Or can captain awards be granted to anyone whose seniority is up for the turn?
