I saw nothing about pilot pay, but it does seem he has a thing or two to learn about ETOPS..
Not with passengers and bags.
David: Yeah, but that’s different. [The 220] has 7-hour range. We can fly Salt Lake to Maui or Denver to Kahului.

“It’s not like a 74-seat airplane that’s a scope airplane like the 175. It’s a fine airplane, but it’s not optimally sized for CASM because their pilots make the same, their maintenance is the same. Their capital cost isn’t more, burns a little less fuel because it’s lighter but they have basically 50 less seats than we do. That allows us to charge lower fares and stimulate the market.”
I assume he’s talking about this.

Hope that doesn’t work out the way he thinks it will....

It irks me to no end to fly with and talk to pilots that deem both the E-190/195 and A220 as “RJs” just because they’re from the same manufacturer that started out their jet product line with 50 seat RJs.
Get out of that mentality or else management will gladly pay you RJ rates on them when in reality they’re replacement aircraft for small narrowbody MAINLINE aircraft.
