For what it's worth, weekly classes starting in mid-August. The number I saw was closer to 40-45 per month, not 60. If you guys are increasingly frustrated by your lot in life, are fairly junior, and have minimal chances of upgrading/flowing in the next five years...come on down. The water is fine at EDV!

With all of our new hires heading to LGA for the foreseeable future, they might as well go over there.

As an FO unless they are displaced from the e145 right seat and the e145 being almost 3 times the fleet size of the e175 only an upgrade gets them off that airplane. Welcome to the big apple, watch out for the worm.

This is true. Some think they’ll catch the next hiring wave at envoy now before the pay raise (if it ever arrives) but that ship has sailed back in late 2016 early 2017 which could very well be a 5-6 year flow.

For all new-hires going to LGA now might as well get very well
compensated for it and go to Endeavor.

Just talked to some AA flight attendants...

At 3 years they're making the same pay as a first year FO, even though we have industry leading pay.

This is spot on. There won’t be another huge hiring wave just because pay went up a few bucks.

It was ~September or October ‘17 that EDV got their rates.

The LOA was signed around then. The wages went into effect 1/1/2018.

So what’s next? More cooling down? 🙄

Varsity 07-16-2019 06:39 PM

The cadets are basically hired pilots.

How does the union not have access to them?

This.

When I was a cadet they never gave me ANY resources. One could argue “that’s cause they don’t pay dues” well what about probationary pilots? They don’t pay dues and yet get all the emails and everything. If they really wanted to reach cadets then they can so I believe that’s upon the union to carry out.

The union has tried to access them. The company has blocked them claiming they are a separate work group.

Finding anyone other than swayne to go on camera and be nice like that would be impossible.

Since this was from 4 years ago I'm assuming that yes, they did get the raise, and probably another since.

Look at my previous post, a 3 year AA FA makes the same as a first year FO here. It's pretty sad when I'm sitting with an FO for a deadhead and we hear them complaining about how little they're paid only to chime in the conversation and find this out.

Especially sad considering an FO needs 1500 hours and the majority have a bachelor's degree with massive debt and/or also have previous military experience.

Yeah it’s pretty bad but we’ve made good progress in the industry as a whole, this raise needs to keep up with that trend otherwise we seriously are going to be bringing in some sketchy prospects who will never make it through training. Which means the company spends 50k for essentially nothing. So with that being said a year 3 FA making as much if not more than an FO with 150k of debt is alarming to say the least.

50k for 1-2 students that fail per class is nothing when you're saving over $1 million every 2 weeks underpaying your pilots

Yes, very valid point, but what if said sketchy pilots get through and causes severe aircraft perhaps even totals one?

They'll get fired for spinning in the wrong heading before being able to crash the plane.

What if the unions asked the creator of QuickTrade to suspend the open time pickup feature until the AIP is approved :D

You know it's a going to be a good trip when your CA briefs you with "I don't want politics on the flight deck" followed 20 seconds later by "how these f*cking liberals are destroying this country", and finished with "are you a christian?".
