...and the work rules improvements you alluded to?

That's a start I guess. When was the last time you guys got a raise before this one?

ShyGuy

Sorry, I was still editing it and put it all-in-one.


The last time we got a raise was same timing last year, effective April 1 2012.

Edit above, *** is "willing to fly" and not "what the *******" as the forum logic thinks.

Lobaeux

Looks good! Too bad I don't have 4000 hours to apply.

The Juice

Don't forget about the "If Johnny has 6 apples and Cindy has 4 apples" aptitude test

CrakPipeOvrheat

It's called virgin for a reason.

Lobaeux

True!!
I probably couldn't pass their aptitude test!

Great news, but how do you increase your employees salaries, when you can't make money? I just don't understand. If anything I would've thought that management was gonna ask for concessions till they have better financials.

But who knows? maybe they do. Any how, still good for the VX pilots, I guess better for the industry!

putzin

A billion dollar question.
