But you showed up to fly as of recently correct? So why would they inflate the wages if what they offered was good enough to put your butt in their seat? I'm guessing you fly for TSA or G7 by looking at your previous posts so im guessing the quick upgrade perked your interest also. This is another way to get people in seats. Changes in wages have happened but they wont double and triple if a 20% increase gets people to show up.
