JD Powers, again!
 

XOXO to each and everyone of you who've gone above and beyond in moving aircraft while slaving away for up to 40%+ below industry wages. We couldn't have achieved such a milestone without your contribution and dedication to the fine keepers of the frijoles at the puzzle palace.

In the 2017 overall rankings among traditional airlines, Alaska earned the highest score of 765, up 14 points from 2016. Delta finished 7 points behind at 758 and American came in third at 736. United, 716, and Air Canada, 709, came in fourth and fifth.


At least now we know what airlines we compare to best! Should be easy to figure out how our JCBA should fall in line with the peers we compete with!

Follow the money

What? You guys aren't happy with v-class tickets & free food in the pilot lounges?

Bingo! Our competitors are #2, 3, and 4. Of course, the Bean Minion (BM) will find a way to slide the ULCCs into the mix. In the end, you get what you pay for.

Balloons. I want balloons.

All the base chief pilots are singing the siren song....come on guys, soon it will all be behind us, we are going to get a good compensation package that will fund our growth....lets all get along....and start picking up premium again or else.....Amazing, we are smart enough to tool around in a 50 million dollar jet but too dumb to see right through the thinly veiled threats.....same old story
