This too would probably save the company money since people will probably settle into their niche and not keep chasing the dollar.
Hey PD,
DAL has 3 common type/ same pay categories. All flying is paid at the higher rate.......it is negotiated in the contract. I agree that Purple 75's should be brought up to Wide Body rates ; or at the very least, established as a " large Narrow Body " with an appropriate bump above 72 rates.
Good luck,
BG
