Flexjet and CA only pay what they do because of Netjets, and netjets only has the pay/benefits they do cause of the union, which was teamsters at the time. If it was not for the union at netjets, none of the fracs would be paying anywhere close to what they do now. Netjets was the first to hike their pay, and the rest followed to remain competitive. simple as that
