I'm a potential return to work with 7 years longevity. Looking at FO pay with 23k then a hopeful upgrade relatively soon (I know, to be the plug in NYC). Just trying to get a handle on what to expect as far as pay the first couple of years.
No this is being misunderstood. What he was saying is that those in the 3-7 year bracket may see a slight pay cut WITH THE BONUS INCLUDED in pay rates. So for example a 4 year captain may only get an $18-20 an hour raise when the bonus is incorporated into pay, whereas a 12 year captain may see a $25 an hour raise, hence The "smoothing".

The bottom line is that in this negotiating environment no one is going to see too drastic of a pay cut from what they are making now with base wages + bonus.

The sky is not falling folks.

It sure would be nice to see about 129-130/hr for 12 yr plus Captains.

Any indication on a timeframe for the rates to change?

Is the FO rate only going to be a 4 year rate again or will it increase past the 4 year mark?

Not sure honesty, but at this point you are only a 4 year FO here by choice. Far different from a year ago when 8 year guys were capped out.

No one should make less at guarantee with the new rates, not in this environment.

Numbers that have been tossed around are $43/hour plus $10K bonus for first years up to year 4 FO pay at $62/hour. On the captain side I believe they want the 12 year 76 seat rate to be about $123. Take these with a grain of salt though because I'm pretty sure the company is not even in negotiations yet.

I put that in the comments portion of the survey that the union put out. Convert the bonus evenly throughout the ranks because it's fair now. If you can get some gains for the super senior then great but no one should go backwards at this point. Base it on min guarantee also.

Negotiations start the last week of this month. Union says whatever loa comes of it will most likely go to pilot vote because it will have to do with pay rates.

As far as the 12 yr captain rate, they are just trying to make the senior guys whole again from the bankruptcy.

On a side note, the union wouldn't say from who they'd be coming from, but to expect the 200s to be coming online here starting first quarter so I'd personally expect to hear news from the company before Christmas on that front.

A $23K bonus converts to roughly $25/hour for a 75 hour minimum guarantee. The union is saying that we can't do that across the board because now that it is being wrapped into pay rates, the employer needs to pay more taxes, something about 401K, etc.

even if you do a bonus based on an 85 hour month (a conservative number for lineholders) it equates to about $22-$23 an hour. If we saw a raise like this across the board I would happy. Anything less and it feels like we're losing out IMO.

Be nice to make the only guys left out in the cold whole before I bail.
