Sure, but NWA and DAL both had more widebody aircraft than CAL and both had less than UAL, so they were "closer" airlines to begin with.

So they will figure something out and I think its going to be just fine.....
And CAL narrow bodies paid more the UAL wide bodies. So you want the money or look cool or in your airplane? Part of career expectations.

Well said. I don't give a good goose fart what I'm flying as long as I get paid well and have a good quality of life. The "we have more widebodies" argument never made much sense to me, especially given that - as a 737 FO at Cal - I was making more than UAL widebody FOs and still getting 18 days off a month.

12 year pay from prior to JCBA:

UAL 767 CA: $160.53
CAL 737-800 CA: $169.33

UAL 777/747 CA: $191.79
CAL 777/767 CA: $193.15


UAL 767 FO: $109.64
CAL 737-800 FO: $115.60

UAL 777/747 FO: $131.00
CAL 777/767 FO: $131.80

I think this is what they are referring to. Do you have differing information?

Thats the $64k question and nobody knows with the new policy. CAL will scream "staple" and UAL will scream "longevity" and the arbitrators will sort it out. The only thing that is known is that they will be senior to any new hires.

Note that CAL also had pilots on furlough when the merger was announced that are in the same boat if the snapshot is merger announcement (or closing) in 2010.

They also might consider what the career expectations (I.e. career earnings) are of one junior pilot who is an FO and will be an FO for many years who eventually makes widebody captain when he's 64, vice another junior pilot who is a 737 captain at 35 and remains a 737 captain or better for the next 30 years. The mere existence of more larger planes at one airline doesn't necessarily mean career expectations are better.
