But Cacti, shouldn't your contract be significantly better since you're comparing the west contract to a bankruptcy contract?

I was speaking just to the actual pay rates. I agree the West contract as a whole is much better. I was looking at training pay in the MOU and it described pay for PC/PT's. Doesn't the West do the same CQT type recurrent the East does?

Yep, we just get paid more hours per event.

Our contract is significantly better so much so the APa wanted most of it and couldn't get it. The pay scales suck but vacation/ltd/guarantees etc. we're industry leading. I'll give you an example: A west crew doing a 3 day phx-hnl with a 24 hr layover blocks 12 hours and gets paid 15:45, an east or aa crew doing same would only get 12 hours. So the west pilot is making the equivalent of $181 an hour compared to the east pilots $160.

Captain cactiboss, after the merger it would be an honor to carry your iPad for you on a 4 day trip.
