There is nothing wrong with a senior FA (think longevity) being paid more than a regional new-hire, period.
Longevity has nothing to do with it. How much experience does one get by serving drinks for 20 years? Damn they could how two new younger hotter FAs for the price of one older FA and they will do just as good of a job of not better because they wouldn't be crusty old FAs. Plus the passengers would probably prefer that also.
