Lowering the bar, in this case, has little to do with pay rates. It has to do with enabling management to circumvent an already established Collective Bargaining Agreement (TSA's).
TSA Holdings did not need a separate seniority list to operate under a separate operating certificate, which is all that was needed to comply with mainline scope.
Airline management is continuing to test the waters of alter-ego operations. First Freedom (which was re-absorbed), now TSA, which may ultimately be re-absorbed. Alter egos are simply a complex and cynical way to attempt to drive down pilot costs (wages).
