FO pay only. The problem is attracting pilots

I don't have the loa in front of me but when they did away with the new hire bonus that put in a cap where any more increase in fo pay had to also increase ca pay.

I'd wager we'll see an increase across the board.

Dear Ma,
Well it sure is one heck of a fight out here. General says we should be up to the front lines in a weeks time. The lord finally brings us good news as an FO who flew with JS a few days said he confirmed the PHX base and said they were looking into raising pay to upper 40s, low 50s to start. CAs can see a 5-10% raise. I'm not sure if we can believe this miracle until the lord casts his final word. I'll write to you soon. Until then, back to the fight. I'll hopefully update you later with news of victory and conquest.

Yours,
A Junior FO

hmm I could have sworn that was one of the talking points back in the day. If I'm wrong, though it wouldn't be the first time... Or the last.

Me too and it seems to be on par with what Weekendsoff has been saying so who knows what's in the works.

Good stuff. Just needs a violin version of Ashokan Farewell playing in the background.

The problem is, the company can do a lot more on the bottom end to get people in the door, than they can on the top end to get people to stay. No captain is going to pull their Delta app, or turn down an interview, just because Compass raised their pay by 10% or more. So there is no motivation to do an across the board pay raise at all.

But maybe it will stop those that can't get a call from delta from jumping to the first LCC they get.
