Sounds really good... until you note that the most junior CA at DAL makes $179. Junior FO pay is still gonna be >$20 an hour below the majors too, and I already know your schedules are waaay worse. I also saw the articles this week about Allegiant's maintenance issues, but I never saw any comparisons to the DAL or AA MD-80 fleets of similar longevity. I'd think a side by side comparison would really hammer home the point that maintenance is being severely shortchanged. Keep up the good fight and May the Judge Be With You soon.
100% accurate. Thanks for your support.
