PDT...well...PDT is struggling with growth right now and I am pretty sure that they are shrinking even though they could hire hundreds if they were able to get everything in order.
The AA WO are filling classes because they are stable and predictable. Endeavor raised pay, and the AA WO will follow suit and exceed that pay. Someone else will jump up with a big benefit, and the AA WO will again do the same.
The flow helps, but the AA WO also get most of the same benefits as the mainline AA. AA is starting to create a culture of "one" family between regionals and mainline. They have been talking about this for several years, and it is starting to show. Examples:
- Every mainline AA employee gets 2 free positive space tickets anywhere in the world...all WO regional employees are included.
- Every mainline AA employee gets profit sharing...all WO regional employees are included.
- Every mainline AA employee gets $1000 tax check...all WO regional employees are included.
- All AA WO regional employees get the exact same travel benefits as mainline AA employees.
I am very happy that Endeavor raised the bar, and Republic may be following suit. It just means even higher pay at the AA WO in a few months.

Funny. Thought there was a pilot shortage. Especially at the regionals. Pay them accordingly and treat them without despair and suddenly they have to "cap" classes. Interesting concept.

Doesn’t matter if it’s an L-CAL or L-UAL or the UALALPA higher ups, they’re all surprised at what a cluster the CPP is and how poorly executed it’s been.
