Also, it’s probably a good idea to be alongside other major airline forums since Breeze will be flying major airline equipment, even if their pay rates don’t reflect that. If this was in the regional thread, there’d be a lot of “hey it’s better than Mesa.” At least here it can be compared against other major airlines by major airline guys, and their rates can get appropriate scrutiny.
Mesa Pilots took reduced guarantee from 76 to 68hrs this year due to Covid and the company was in the black with 14m in profits this year.
$36*68hrs 😳 = sad
Wouldn't be surprised if JO a board member at Breeze.
