I'm sure that'll be the next line. SWA lied in order to lowball Delta's pilot negotiations. SWA is coming to ATL. SWA is undercutting our fares. SWA is buying pizza for ATC. SWA is killing kittens...

Let me think here - roughly the difference between average compensation at SWA vs Delta is $193,000/$142,000. By my estimates, Delta's avg pay in ALL aircraft has to increase 36% to equal SWA wages. I have no idea what that means for narrow body rates, but I am estimating that it has to be around a 50% raise just to equal SWA wages.

You want real numbers, I'm about to give you enough to make your eyes water...for free. Why the heck can't you guys gather this information yourself when there are millions of dollars in compensation at stake? Profit sharing? Yougottabekiddinme.
