Meyers9163 I think is spot on. I think most of the "new" cities will be picked up by AWAC and it'll be a wash on the level of our current flying.
Still Grounded-It's not only sad that we make more flying a much smaller aircraft, it's also our work rules, which makes yours look silly, it's our trip and duty rigs, our higher per diem, CX and MX cancellation pay, our higher 401k match, get the idea? Yeah, we have a much better contract, which is still a concessionary contract, then your current contract. My current roomate is a RW FO and I bring home a healthy margin more then him, so it's not all about straight pay rates. But you guys get to fly a "big jet". Have fun.

Nice. Who do you think is ultimately paying your salary?

I don't think it takes a genius to realize that flying a 76-86 seat airplane should mean bringing home more money than flying a 50 seater.

i kind of find this funny that you are all arguing over pay rates, routes, and my tin can is more comfy than your tin can. this is the second hub operation airways has cut in a little more than a month. what happens in the beginning of september? airways sells its boston operation to south west? how long do you think the dca operation will exist or the clt and philly?
