Let's take a look at 12 year AB captain pay. United is 264 an hour plus 16 retirement and 11 profit sharing. JB is 219 an hour plus 13 retirement and 16 profit sharing.
264 * 1.27 = 335
219* 1.29 = 282
In order to get us the same compensation we need a 19% raise. So we are behind. Is it 40%? No. Not at united anyway.
