We already have proof that paying 3x is not enough incentive. All the IA’s going out will now be QS’s. Company still paying 3x, pilots that have no intention of flying won’t get nuisance calls, and the pilots that want to fly won’t have to sit on hold for 15-20 minutes to talk to a scheduler to get a trip that may or may not be available. They’ll just say they want it in Arcos and wait 12 minutes to see if they get it. There will be transparency again which is a good thing.
I would have liked to see everyone in a missed coverage step paid something instead of just senior pilot.
