Quote: Duvie, not to jump on what you've said here, but the devil is in the details.

1) SKYW second year FO pay is 3 dollars an hour more than mine. Yet its for a 70 passenger jet. 40% more seats, 8% more pay.

2) Does SKYW Paid 100% for deadheads?

3) Do you have lot's of opportunity to trade trips, drop trips, bad day-worse day trades, open time swapping, and pick-up or drop?

4) 100% pay protection on cancellations, management pick-ups, etc.

5) Does SKYW have a Retirement Plan (A or B) and 401K.

6) Does SKYW employees receive annual profit sharing.


Don't know where SKYW stands on these items, but primarily I wanted to point out that there's more to it than what the pay table shows.

SKYW is the richest single regional in the country. I believe about 700 million in Cash and no union! If you guys don't have an industry leading contract, you have to ask...why not?

Hey buddy, maybe you should look at the majors (AA, DAL, UAL, NWA, CAL & US Airways) where some equipment pay scale differences are on the upwards 80%-100%+ more seats for less than 8% more pay. Hell, there's not even a split at UPS between a/c and you want to talk about revenue/profit differences. UPS takes the cake.

I’m not saying that we don’t deserve increase pay for increase revenue, we do!

BTW, on everything else you’ve posted. Do a little research, it’s not hard, just search this forum and you’ll get a complete breakdown of our & your pay packages.
