I just wanted to highlight this because it seems many folks assume new hires there are immediately upgrading into WB aircraft and while the 767-300 is a wide-body airplane it is not treated as such in Delta’s pay rates. Only the 767-400 is which is considered a different fleet at Delta.
I realize that the new TA rates are way higher than our WB rates currently but they are not delta’s true WB rates.
The most Junior pilot awarded a true widebody, pay scale wise at Delta ( 330,767-400,350) is a 1999 hire. This is second hand knowledge so please correct me if I am wrong but some food for thought.
It still pays $13 more an hour than a WB CA at FedEx. And $130 per hour more than a WB FO.
