I work weekday 3 day lines, haven’t had a line over the weekend in over a year. I avoid 4 days, we don’t have 5 days and my total compensation (pay, per diem, NEC) was 248k so I guess not quite 30k. Seems like it is a little “sweat off your back” since you’re over here justifying your choice and calling others dumb for not staying at AA. I’m happy for you though, maybe you’ll be the first generation of AA pilots that doesn’t experience displacements, furloughs, bankruptcy or a crappy merger/acquisition.

Alright. I’m a CA….let’s compare. I’ll even use your longevity step for pay comparison if you want since I’m at yr 9 pay.

What’s your block and credit for Feb?

Theres a reason I never applied to AA….

Why are you people feeding these trolls?

Lax can go jump off a short pier. I blocked him awhile ago…only see his posts when people quote him. Same with stool sample.

It is absurd. You’re comparing your experience from 17-24 years ago with AMR during the lost decade which included major events that will be read by our children in history class (9/11, Financial crisis).

The culture of negativity you described from
20 years ago does not exists at AAL today. I’ve experienced nothing close to what you’ve described.

The best part of this thread is we haven’t even discussed the fact SWA is projected to have little if any growth for the next few years thanks to the Max 7 debacle. The OP will be stuck on the bottom of the seniority list for years while the Big 3 continue to grow and take SWA market share. The LCC model is finished.

My long term prediction for SWA will be forever seniority stagnation as a result from a failing LCC business model. Then in a decade or two you’ll be acquired by one of the Big 3 and stapled to the bottom like TWA.

Southwest isn’t really a true LCC like Spirit or Frontier. We do equal or more domestic flights compared the big 3 depending on which metric you use. We are the most frequent carrier at something like 70% of the airports we fly to. Southwest has a very loyal customer base. I live in a huge WN/UA hub and almost all of the people I know, regardless of income or age, prefer to travel WN. The legacies have their niche as does Southwest.

I would bet your bedroom is covered in AA memorabilia. I know, you don’t work at AA.

You’re a midwit so I take your prediction with a very small grain of salt.
