Get ready for all the comments about how temporary the rates are.

with the economic collapse coming, they’ll be real temporary. ‘Concessions’ is the second most used word in aviation. Until bankruptcy. Then it’s ‘furloughs’. All coming. Markets are collapsing, inflation still rising…….all roads lead to a nice rounded and neatly packaged calamity.

While we didn’t get any QOL enhancements now, this is still one of the best jobs I’ve ever had including other flying jobs. But now that check will be bring real money.
I think the young FOs voted yes because they saw the time value of money and they know if the hiring environment changes they will get stuck with all the QOL they could want and the hours they do fly are at a much higher rate.
For the lifers this TA makes it more attractive for others to stay here waiting for D/U/A/S to call and for the best and brightest to come here.
My guess is we will hold on as the regionals contract around us.
You know the people who a few months ago went to the struggling regionals for the then leading LOAs now wish they had the stability, aircraft, and bases of skywest.
This is great for us and our industry and unlike all save Horizon, ours was VOTED in as a real TA!

Easy there on the koolaid. So much to unpack here.

will be short lived….
“We are a bit nervous about the rates,” says SkyWest Airlines chief executive Chip Childs, adding that recent salary increases are “deeply concerning” for airlines. Higher labour costs will not be without consequence. The economics will force us to reduce the size of our businesses” he says.

The thing that makes you such an exceptional pile of excrement is that you always describe the suffering of the masses with such joy as if none of it affects you. Like you are watching it all from the outside. A bully with his magnifying glass burning ants. Kiss my posterior.

Well, if I used the words I wanted to use, APC wouldn’t post it. Does Domino post under other user names as well? Does he actually work at OO?
