And I doubt ALPA is telling you what Eurowings and TUI pilots are getting paid to fly wide body airplanes to and from U.S. destinations.
I’m definitely familiar with what pilots make in Europe. I never said I hated Norwegian pilots. Those were his words, not mine. I lived in Europe for a few years and have the EASA license, but I don’t intend to work for a European carrier at this time.
