First year got a 45% raise this contract and DOS increases year over year. First year ends at $61.15. I hope we can secure another 45% raise for first year on that for next contract. Is that “selling them down the river?”
Would $90 an hr next contract make everyone happy? Or do we need to guarantee that everyone on first year next time makes $100k first year?
Raises will come, as they will hopefully come to all pilots. Sorry but the pilot group spoke with their votes and wallets. You can hate that fact, but it doesn’t make it any less of a fact.
