More to the point, Hawaiian wants to be a growing, dynamic, airline. Best to partner with a growing, dynamic, airline. Who needs a slowly consolidating legacy carrier? Our partner's only interest in us is as an organ donor.
It would be an interesting curiosity, but for the fact this airline's capacity reductions will cost me at least $11,000 this year. Pulling together for Delta's success? Really Richard? Then why did you outsource my job?
Forget you Bar, what about the guys who where captains and have been displaced, their pay cut makes yours pale by comparison.
You could say luck is part element of when one gets hired, but seniority progression is an implicit promise of a the seniority based system and determines pay.
The threats that caused seniority regression for the past 10 years have not passed but are being managed very well. It's time to recapture some pay by having seniority progression. This is an issue that should be of interest to all pilots especially when you consider the compounding of interest on retirement savings based on current earnings. This is a huge deal financially!
