I agree. We'll start to turn into Republic before they got a new contract. Lots of reassignments, junior availability assignments, and lots of canceled flights.

RAH was a miserable place to work with all of the aforementioned problems of JAs, canceled flights, etc. Once it got to a breaking point, then, and only then, did management pay a decent wage, which at the time was the highest regional pay. Others proactively followed suit by raising pay (except Mesa), and I think it will take events like this to make JO pay market labor costs. Paying 30-50% of others' first year pay isn't sustainable.

How long did you work for RAH before going to Mesa?

Seniority List
October - 1258
November - 1231
January - 1218
Even though they are hiring every pilot they can find that meets the mins, and will come to Mesa, the seniority list is decreasing. It seems Mesa has an attrition problem.
Ideas? Anyone? Bueller?
Perhaps it is time for a new, industry standard contract. Perhaps.
At this point, may also need to throw in some retention bonuses like every other regional is doing.
I can't see any airline throwing airplanes Mesa's way with these kind of stats.
