Regional pay was much closer, as were many other part 91K/135 operators. The sudden surge in Regional Pilot wages started by AA in mid-June was matched within a few months by the other regionals. They pretty much had to or start parking even more jets.
I'm sure other 91, 91K, and 135 operators have been hit hard by this escalation in pay. At least the ones who require an ATP or R-ATP anyway. NetJets and other operators are going to have to do something about the pay or face a greatly increased rotation speed of their revolving doors, although NJA has very good benefits and "soft" pay which may help them somewhat.
