However your misconception is that they are the highest paid in the company. No comparison. There are some in HKG swinging big but 777 takes the cake hands down(some 11 folks are doing quite well also) and not just "the most senior" and not just a few. I get your point, I'm just correcting the facts so some don't think if they go over there, its the richest seat in the house.
You're right, 777 guys take the cake. I could've been more clear.
But 757 senior captains (25+ years) I flew with told me that they'd never made more in any left WB seat in MEM/ANC than in NB CGN (none were coming from the 777 though, big difference). I take them at their word. And yeah, maybe not the most $ of all seats, but for guys considering bidding over on this bid, it is a phenomenal opportunity, and very well paid, despite it being NB. IMO.
