A lot of Alaska's and others' frustrations goes back to when they thought our debate over a average daily trip guarantee or 4 hours for a non-working calendar day was that it was a 4 hour min-day when it was not. For a while they could not grasp the concept that it didn't apply if you had a duty period touch your "30 hour layover" that you would not receive the 4 hours of add pay. Just ask the guys that had to do those nice Fairbanks layovers love it. With the ADTG, it would have paid a minimum of 14:15 with as little as two legs in 3 days. With the one we voted in, it can pay a minimum of 8:00 hours in 3 days.

Don't be surprised to see someone respond to that last paragraph flailing their arms.


I don't like to stir the pot, I just am stating it as I see it. If Alaskabound and others think the good decision to come to Compass somehow still applies to pilots today, they are mistaken or are intentionally clouding potentional new hires with incorrect info in order to secure bodies behind them for security at Compass. Those new hires deserve correct information just as when Alaskabound and others made their decision to jump over in 2013-2014.



That is why I think the Endeavor option is a good one to look at. All payscales went up $20K/year.



I thought all the payscales would have gone up with the agreement, especially with the leverage the pilot group had.
