Exciting times at CommutAir!
Effective April 1st the company and our pilot group have agreed on significant improvements to pay and quality of life for our pilot group. Among other things, the Letter of Agreement
added to our CBA includes significant pay increases for both First Officers and Captains, a potentially best in the industry commuter policy, and several other significant improvements
to the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Details of the LOA include:

· Pay Rates (which make us one of the top 5 regional airlines over a 5 year tenure)
1) Year 1 FO pay $30/hr, Year 2 $32, average increase of nearly 21%
2) Year 1 Captain pay $48/hr., year 2 $49.00, year 3 $50.00, with an average increase of 7% for the rest of the Captain scale; pay scale created for 50 seat captains: + $5/hr
· Commuter Policy
1) the intent of the language is to protect a pilot who makes a good effort to get to work. No more disciplinary action for commuting failures if a few conditions are met.
2) One primary and one backup flight with no specific number of available seats. The jumpseat counts as an available seat.
3) Company-paid hotels for commuters who choose to commute the day prior to a trip. Each commuter pilot is entitled to up to 4 rooms per bid under this policy.
· Alternate Deadhead
Pilots will not lose deadhead pay when they choose to cancel a deadhead to or from an assignment.
· Parking
Commuters will now be reimbursed for their cost to park at home, up to the actual cost of parking at their domicile.


If you are interested in joining our pilot group, make sure to update your airlineapps and send us an email at [email protected] so we can schedule you for an interview. We are
predominantly hiring into our EWR and IAD crew bases with the next classes.

Upcoming interview day is:

May 7th in Newark

Sooooooooo, are you feel'n the "exciting times"??
