short answer: No. long answer is they reduced pilot salaries by 25% last year and then gave back 25% of what they took from everyone back as a lump sum which was taxed like a bonus so basically worthless.

Does Airshare have a plan to improve pilot pay and benefits to make it more competitive with other fractionals so they can attract and retain pilots ?

Default New bases..

Does anyone in the know ever think the bases will expand more even with the ones announced today? Say like NYC/ATL?

Pay Increases, Bonuses Ahead for Airshare Captains


https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-n...ource=hs_email

Pay increases and bonuses ahead for AirShare Captains. Also more bases. Average increase in Captain's pay of 25% . Anyone type rated in the Phenom 300 can get a bonus for hiring on with AirShare.

The article mentions bonuses for pilots flying "over the standard 125 hours per month". WTF??

That is a typo. It’s 125 hrs per quarter. Years past pilots averaged around 450-600 hours. This year is closer to 600-800 depending on how much extra one chooses to work.

How much are pilots given their schedules in advance? Are trips assigned based on seniority? How does sitting on home standby work?

The pay decrease was due to covid and ensured that no one was laid off or furloughed. Airshare has never laid off or furloughed anyone in 21 years. Captain pay is now 120K. Bases have been added with no off day repositioning. A quarterly bonus has also been added based on hours flown within each quarter.

There was a typo in the article. This is a quarterly bonus.

Great people and a great company.
So glad to see the growth into Challenger 300’s.

EAS has a great story of who we are and where we are from.

$120K? F/O's can make close to that in their first year at NetJets. But I guess it's apples to oranges. Didn't know about the no furloughs thing. NetJets didn't furlough as a result of Covid but of course they did after the 2007-2008 meltdown of the economy.
