Have you guys ever thought of crew costs per passenger.


E170 MKE-MCO 2.5 hrs 85% load

Passengers 65
Crew costs CA$75FO$31 $106 plus 30% benefits equals $137/hr or $342.50 for the flight
Crew cost/passenger $5.30
Ticket cost $100.00
25% pay increase $1.32


E190 same trip

Passengers 85
Crew costs CA$90FO$31 or $121 plus 30% benefits equals $157.30/hr or $393.25 for the flight
Crew cost/passenger $4.62
Ticket costs $100
25% pay increase $1.15


Pilot costs are a small piece of the ticket costs. Is a 25% increase going to drive business away...

NO !!!
