Good for them! To me this highlights the importance of fighting to maintain our fair share (50%) of flying on international JVs. Those are our best jobs and even if I never get to one I sure want the guy in front of me to get there.

It’s just another windfall for the guys who spent 20+ years as 747 captains, kept their pensions, and got an extra 5 years working at the top thanks to age 65. I don’t care what these guys make. Most of us will never get to fly as 350 captains or as captain of any widebody.

If you had a 10 day trip starting on the 5th of the month and you got a 3 day GSWC starting on the 3rd, you would be working 3 days and get paid for 13 days and would now have an extra 9 days off where you could GS again.

If you didn't care, you probably wouldn't have posted about it.
Begrudging someone a good deal? Shady.
Begrudging someone a good deal that doesn't adversely impact you? Whiny.
