I am sure their pilot pay does not have as much of an impact as you guys think. They are a much more senior pilot group. Most jr CA as of now is 8 years and roughly 200 fresh FOs (sept 2013 and on). Not the same can be said for NK... How many 10 year FOs does NK have or 15+ years CAs?

During the transition of NK into ULCC indigo saw many faults with the transition process (even though NK was/is extremely profitable). Despite rough early start to the year F9 seems to have much better operation with better leadership. F9 still has long ways to go to perfect there operation though.

But you guys feel free to blame the current lower pay at F9
