Which, God-willing, a JCBA with B6 will take care of.
The rules have changed. Companies are going to survive or fold on FO retention and overall QOL. Read the AS thread if you think otherwise. They ARE (technically) a legacy and
a 12 year CA is pulling $266 (+15.5% DC) on a contract already up for renewal. But they are struggling to staff and retain at the FO level with a first year FO pay of only $93 (+15.5%).
They aren’t losing senior CAs (except to retirement), not even the VX guys that are bitter about the JFK closure, but they sure are FOs. Even WN has identified that their FOs aren’t competitive and they’ll need to address that in the next contract.
