It’s not a joke. Many Line pilots on property recommend going to EDV. NH Street CA are getting “up to” $45k. But what is the threshold requirement for the high end? What is the low end of that bonus? What is the median bonus that these prior 121 HVA pilots are getting?
This is why the UNION is important in keeping the company transparent, so many tactics being employed that are within the company’s legal rights to bring in more NH. But Long term we shall all experience the effects, including said NHs flooding the gates once on property.
With the competition for pilots increasing I’m happy to see classes filled. But our pilots on property are recommending EDV for great reasons. We enjoy our job and how the industry is improving and were making livable income now, yet we are a major part of bringing in a whole lot of revenue/profits not seen before in the industry for the company and our parent company. The grass is typically not always green on the other side, but in this case it is at Endeavor/Delta in how they take great care of their people leading the way First with their $80,000 bonus over 3-4yrs just a few yrs ago. Now the current pay rate increases (turning the temporary bonuses into hard pay rates). It’s not a joke at all.
We are disappointed Mgmt is not proactive in keeping Line Pilots competitive in pay rates, work rules, and Rsv rules like Long Call seen throughout the regionals industry now. Our Pay rates will increase when AAG believes ENY product has greater value and is more competitive than EDV, and others. Until then I won’t believe the cool-aid that we have a superior product.
