I counted the CLT lines before the snafu, 45% had X-mas off plus at least one day before or after. Looking at it today, there are now 51%. I didn't track any other metrics though, but overall not bad.

So more lines have Christmas off than before? 45% had it off before, 51% have if off now?

It seems so based on what I tracked.

Pilot Sharp

well after having read the company email it appears that they had built lines incorporating flying that were parts of November’s flying that were carry in days from November. So they said they had multiple trips at the beginning of the month that were double staffed. This apparently meant they needed to completely rebuild December lines and have us re bid.

Just remember this is the company that wants to handle PBS a much more complex system. They can’t even build simple lines correctly.

I’ll keep line bids and SAP any day!

Can anyone tell me when the recording of the “all pilot call” with the union will be posted on the website? I’d love to hear what was discussed sincei was unable to call in

Is the Endeavor style pay raise in the bank for PSA?

In the bank? No. Could it be a thing? Yes.

Now that Endeavor’s TA has passed, it’ll be interesting to see if PSA will continue to fill up new hire classes.

Several airlines have had full classes for the last several months. Endeavor has had full classes for awhile now, as has Envoy, Piedmont, and PSA. I have read on here that PSA Recruiter has said that PSA has had waitlists for classes.

The pay for first officers at Endeavor has not gone up, so I doubt it would really attract that many people (unless they don't understand what was voted in). The AA WO still have a flow, and Endeavor does not. AA will match the pay, and likely one-up them and make it even higher. So no real reason to be concerned with people not coming to PSA.

I would expect business as usual at the AA WO for at least 6-7 months. Everyone expects that the pay will be raised here and several other good benefits will be negotiated. If by that time we don't have something close to being signed, then something might change.

I have a friend in the latest class and he said that many of the new hires are from other airlines. Several of the lower paying ones or ones with no career progression jumped ship and came to PSA. That will likely continue.
