No long call reserve. Reserve has not changed. Two hour min call out. No hotels during training.
This is still a small local airline.... People have been hired that commute. Most people that commute get a crash pad or have friends or relatives they stay with. Some move here. I would suspect that with the pay raise some might now consider moving to MSP for this job.
It's not the best paying, but now our pay has a rate at the end of over $200 an hour. I think we are the only non legacy to have a rate over that bench mark.
I'm sure by the end of this contract others will have 200+ rates but for now, it's not bad for an airline with 20 planes.
I think it will pass.
From the inner grumblings it sounds like we will add 5 planes next summer and possibly a total of 35-50 planes by the end of the contract.
