The reality though, is that it does matter.
it doesn’t matter accurately.
southwest is a low cost carrier.
we are a low cost carrier.
Southwest is the highest paid NB pilots.
Full stop. We should be paid same or more. We have a lower CASM. They should increase RASM. But we should at least make the going rate for airbus pilots.
if being a LCC for frontier means making less the business is unsustainable and a plight to the industry and we should go out of business.
if you’re saying we deserve less. Let’s just quit and go to the bottom of a decent carrier.
you’re worth what you negotiate. Get better at negotiating for your value. Because this whole idea we deserve less is embarrassing for you. When you consider Southwest makes the most doing the same job as a legacy as a low cost carrier.
MRA or bust. We deserve it.
