Obviously the pay rate isn’t as good, but it appears there are lots of new hires who are seeking east coast bases and PHL is appealing to them...
The lower group 1 pay rate is a moot point since everyone starts at the same rate regardless of aircraft and anyone on the 190 for more than their first year is withheld and getting group 2 or better pay anyway. We have guys that have been on the 190 for over 4 years. Not a dime of lost money. Rapid movement, decent schedules, no red-eyes, lots of commutable trips, etc. I’ve been on it for 1.5 years and am trying to stay on it till it goes away. All while making group 2 pay.
