beech1980: Good luck to you SCA pilots... I hope it is a contract with pay and QOL improvements that can be passed by a large majority. Obviously, not everyone will be "totally" pleased, but 5 years is a l-o-n-g time to grind thru the negotiations process for both sides.
Capt. and F/O pay rates will be of interest of course, but how many pay hours do crews average per month?
Reserve = ?
Lineholder = ?
Paid accommodations during training for new-hires?
Do any duty and trip rigs ever kick in or factor much during an average month?

Currently- 1st year is a 75 hour month min @42/hr. After first year monthly min is 70. Reserve is min unless you fly more. Lines are all over the board from 70-85+ hours.
There is no paid hotel during training. Most multi day trips are paid on rig.
The current rig is so low it doesn't bother the company to let you sit at a hotel for a full day and dead head you home on the last flight home from Dallas to MSP because it doesn't cost much to do so. Hopefully the new trip rig will pay more, so at least if you sit you will be paid more.

Give it about one more week for details. In the meantime, it does not hurt to apply.

I was hired last week. I'm just curious about the details, that's all. I can be patient, though.

The end of contract pay is 202 for captains and 135 for first officers.

Small increase in 401k, trip rig. paid for home study, dead head goes to 75 percent and 100 percent in January 2018.
