PSA pay increase really ups their game. I’m waiting on a class date at Republic and I’ve already had 2 people I know from PSA contact me about applying. The new pay seems nice, but I liked the whole package from Republic. Am I being crazy by not really looking at PSA? I hadn’t considered them before because of the lower pay and lack of trip/duty rigs. Now the pay is more than Republic, which makes them hard to ignore (got to pay back those student loans!)
With the full classes at Republic right now, that is something to consider. It might be worth it to you to switch over in order to start sooner.

Wait, don't you work for Envoy? So what would you know about SAP and how good it is over at PSA? I've heard from more then one person that works there that it is nowhere as good as it used to be. btw, Republic has SAP now too.
On another note, congrats to PSA on the new pay raise! That can only mean good things for the rest of the industry.

Yep, if you want a productive line bid the 200. If you like 16 hour 4 day trips bid the 700/900. What really rubs my fur the wrong way is skywest and republic both have round trips to DFW out of DAY. But we love flying or 900s CLT-GSO or CLT-GSP.

Payrates are a small part of a CBA. Soft pay is where you can really make your money. Looks like PSA will be getting premium pay above 75 And Republics yellow flag for all flying above 85. Of the flow works, then Republic will have to at least match PSA. Also I believe during SAP PSA can drop below 75, which is not allowed at Republic. Definitely major improvements for PSA, which should help all of us.

Republic doesn’t get yellow for above 85. It’s 125% for above 87 and that’s block and DH not credit so it’s pretty difficult.

What I was attempting to post was I believe PSA will be getting 150% above 85 hours, which is much better then our current incentive pay. On paper Republics incentive pay looks impressive, but for most it means very little. Very few get red or yellow flag pay, the the 125% above 87 is pretty hard to get.
Basically we may have higher captions pay rates, but only by a few dollars. Overall PSA is probably the new industry leading contract. Honestly as long as the flow still works, I doubt many will see year 10 pay at PSA.
