If we were concerned about max people at top rate we’d have a single CA pay scale like UPS.

That was never a goal of the UAL I was hired by in the 90’s. It was a BK concession having the 777 banded with the 747. The current contract just meant the top scale was even less by dragging up the 767-400.

Not going down that rabbit hole. Everyone on property then knows why the top rate was held back to allow the 767-400 pay rate to match the 747/777. We’re stuck with it now so it doesn’t matter. Just don’t play revisionist theory and make up some story about max people at top rate lol.

Its a cute argument, but we all know why the pay bands ended up the exact way they did.

We had a larger pay cut on the 747 to match the 777 during our gun to our head BK agreement. It was a concession. We gave up top end gains on the highest paying fleet because the company data showed it saved them a ton in training events as people don’t lateral as much between fleets that pay the same.
Nevermind.
Sorry for the thread drift.

So you’re saying we’d be better off with 180 planes paying $330 per hour, instead of 90 787s and 767-400s paying $330 per hour and 90 777s paying $350 per hour because we’d only have 90 planes in the “top pay rates”?

CAL had higher rates because of no work rules. When you factored in the economic benefit of the UAL work rules, every piece of equipment at UAL paid more. Arbitrators agreed. Sorry.
