With both Spirit and Frontier in Section 6 negotiations and given Allegiant's recent success in vastly improved hourly rates, it would seem that our ULCC management teams are using all available means to shore up the time honored tradition of convincing us low tier pilots that we should just be happy to have a job and that we're not sleeping under a bridge in a cardboard box on overnights.

Carry on, Mr. Chili, but we all know that your posts are scripted and part of a concerted effort to maintain the profit margins for a bunch of robber-barons.

The passengers you speak of aren't here because of any sort of customer service. Generally speaking, these are not the type of savvy passengers that devote loyalty to a particular airline. They are here because the seats are cheap. Period. End of story. The management doesn't even care to provide a reasonable level of customer service. Have you ever seen them deal with a family and a lost unaccompanied minor??? I have, twice, and they act as though they couldn't give a damn. They get their money and then they forget about the passenger. That's not customer service. And if you believe that you're gonna make a difference, good for you. But what you may actually be doing is undermining what the pilots are trying to accomplish. To stand unified and get a contract they deserve. This is my 3rd airline and my 1st didn't have a contract. So I've been there. You're paid to fly an airplane. You are underpaid to do so. You should feel foolish sitting in the right seat of an aircraft flying 230 passengers and earning less than $40/hour to do so. I applaud your enthusiasm but pity your lack of ability to understand the reality of what we are dealing with. Mic dropped....
