So, not a true flow then. More comparable to the Endeavor deal. Pass a test...pass some type of interview...and hope to be selected. |

That's for pilots on property. New hires to GoJet do an interview to Spirits standards and are guaranteed a slot in two years with no further interview when they flow. Since pilots on property theoretically didn't do the special interview, they still have to do the assessment. No big deal. The assessment is pretty easy. I know some real interesting characters that work at Spirit (no offense intended) so I'm not completely sure what the purpose of the personality assessment is to be honest.

You seem to forget that not that long ago Spirit pilots was one of the highest paid 320 pilots in the industry. Higher than United or US Air. Now it our time to get paid, you seem to make it sound like it's our fault that our pay is low compared to everyone else. I personally don't care who you work for or what you fly. I spent 8 years flying for the regionals myself so I know what it's like.

They may have had an hourly pay rate somewhere in the longevity scale that matched or was slightly higher than United or Delta but once you added soft pay, work rules, retirement, etc it wasn't even close. I have to laugh when some dude at NK tries to pull the whole " oh we use to be industry leaders" line. So is Allegiant an industry leader because their first year pay was higher than Southwest until SW newest contract was passed? Get real dude!!! NK has always been a second tier airline that's the facts jack.

Yeah. Don't know if I could stomach $38 an hour first year pay at Spirit. Fo's at GoJet make a hell of a lot more than that with bonuses etc. Feeling kinda torn here. Live in Chicago, have degree and 1000's of hours PIC. Maybe I'll stick it out at G7.

It's mind boggling people think this way. Did you know that year 2 exist and year 10? You don't want to be that guy waiting for the legacy call 10-15 years later and still at the regional. Spirit will eventually get a raise like everybody else. The pay cut is the best guaranteed investment you can make since there is life beyond year 1 pay. I don't think you can make $200k+ at the regional.

I can't see DL and UA being to thrilled when delays/cancellations start to rack up due to lack of crew. Both are looking to get rid of RJs and GoJet is not big for either carrier. GoJet may have just put themselves out of business with this flow. But hey at least you will be at spirit.
Playing two ends with opposite objectives will end badly. |
