If Breeze can’t eventually get close to Legacy/LCC wages it will lose pilots who will get their desired wages elsewhere. It’s that simple. There won’t be enough Aussies to completely bail them out. Breeze will eventually have to pay more or watch pilots depart. Why anyone would expect Delta or JB wages at an airline startup in the first 12-18 months is beyond me. Those people should just skip the Breeze application and head straight to Delta, SWA or United. Good luck!
Yeah. I have. And I got equity in the company in exchange for working for no paycheck. That’s how it works. You don’t just underpay labor with no IOU. That’s not how it works.
