Oh, and don't forget the forced upgrades to outstation bases.
Ya, what you’re seeing is dated now. PSA FOs get the sign on bonus plus increased pay rates at 50 bucks an hour first year. The retention bonus is gone and is now a hard pay. Before you didn’t get the Retention bonus until year one anniversary. So now you’re making money from the start. Pretty awesome deal! Plus pay over 75 hrs to 85 is at 125% and from 85-95 at 150%! For all pilots. I’m a year 4 captain and went from 72/hr to 89/hr and when we lose 200s the pay increases due to blended rates. So more like 90 an hour. It’s crazy!! Plus Schedule Adjustment Period and Flow.. no concessions were made.
