Yeah, I had hopped rigs were in better shape too... we may have to do some heavy lifting (again) to bring those rigs up a bit.. 2010 we did it for hourly pay.. so it's par for the course.
would love to hear from someone at Alaska on what they got in their most recent contract..
I think we need to look more seriously at international overrides and night overrides .. looks like the guys at JetBlue have all of us beat in that department.
A guy flying a trip to Japan or Australia should get a premium over the guy doing the west coast milk runs..
There weren't any changes to Alaska's rigs in the last contract. They are as follows:
5 hours per duty period
1 hour of credit per 2 hours of duty (never seen this)
1 hour of credit per 3.5 hours time away from base
International pay is $5/hour for captains, $4/hour of FOs
No night pay
