I've brought that one up before David, but it doesn't fit the narrow talking points that ALPA has come up with. At $4000/month for Captains at both of those places they are at half to less than half of what Norwegian pays, yet are somehow not a concern for U.S. competition on flights to/from Mexico
ALPA's strategy is to scare the public into thinking this will be the Maritime industry all over again. Fatal flaw to that strategy is that nobody in the public or government care. The ALPA brain trust is pure genius, genius I tell you!!
