Cool story.

Thanks……..

How about we both don’t vote for contracts that allow first year pay to be moved up at the company’s will without taking the rest of us. Leverage lost

Yeah. We have that at F9. As much as I like making $90 first year I know it’s not helping us.

I heard you got $90 because you’re a CRJ Driver. That’s an override for the coolness

You mentioned this before without facts so I’ll help you this time. Our attrition per month since the raise in June has been 30, 26, 14, 22, 16, 15 and currently at 9 this month.

I would say it hasn’t been long enough to trace a definite trend but I would say it seems to have helped whether we agree with the policy or not.

Interesting. What is the average experience level of your new hires? Are you pulling in many 1500 hour pilots?

I think you missed my point. I wasn’t talking about attrition in this post. I was talking about how it doesn’t help the pilot group as a whole with leverage. If less people leave that helps the company but how does it help us? Not to mention the regional style sign on bonus. Would love to see stats on how many accept that.

Swag isn’t easy….it’s exhausting!

I can’t say for sure but I would assume so. But I keep seeing adds from Raven and the like touting getting 2000 hour pilots, or pilots with gear up, or failed checkride on with the legacies so I don’t believe our ULCC is exclusive in that club.
