We have to compare apples to apples and negotiations are slow. The survey is actually only about 18 months old and with only 40% turnover it's at least 60% correct. So... comparing to the comparable regionals the deal isn't FANTASTIC but it's not bad and by Mesa standards its pretty phenomenal.
Take the money.

I saw this the other day,
Even with the AAWO pay rates, you are still better off leaving the aawo to frontier/jetblue/southwest/spirit/ or other low-cost major than continuing to stay... even if the pay rate is permanent or you stay until the flow. The earlier you leave to a ULCC, the more money you will make over a decade, 50-100% more. Spirit/frontier guys make a LOT of money if you pick up trips and max out your credits. It really is not at all bad to retire at a ULCC... you will be much happier than AA/United/Delta guys.

I’m done with this union. Sending out an email reminding everyone that you have a $750 uniform and luggage allowance? Yeah you get to use up to $750 at crew outfitters and mesa will take it out of your check each month. If I get one more propaganda email… seriously, whose side are you on? That kind of stuff shows what’s really going on here.

This is assuming you upgrade at the LCC in 4 years. Aren’t upgrade times at LCCs way higher than that?
Anyways thanks for the chart!
