Thank you Envoy, Republic, and Express jet for making the effort. PSA, you guys deserve the contract you're stuck with. A serious question to PSA guys, do you even get COLA raises at the top of the pay scale, or is that it? If the last raise you get as an FO stops at 4 years, at $30 whatever it is, you're going to have a hell of a time paying bills. I hear mom and dad's basement is nice this time of year.
If I see Envoy/Expressjet/Republic guys on an overnight the beer is on me.
There is a COLA raise every year. It's not enough to cover the actual COLA but it is there.
An FO at PSA will have a higher number on their W2(with more days off) at 42ish/hour than any other regional at 47/hour......
But hey, at least everyone else is flooded with internet beers.
