I was really hoping mesa would start things right this year. They failed us by 18 votes.
I think there are enough people here that see their career progression stopping. If they're going to spend the next 5-10 years here they want to get paid appropriately.
There are plenty of pilots here echoing Continental's battle cry "FUPM". I only wish I would have thought to make the bracelets sooner

Perhaps you're unaware that there was recently an annoncement made that RAH will operate E190s under the Midwest Connect banner. That's right, I said E190s. Not E170/175s, but E190s. RAH will be operating the exact same size aircraft as JetBlue & Us Airways.
That is why they should be paid JetBlue rates.

So, are the 170/175/190 rates all the same at RAH?We actually have rates in our contract for E-175's, yeah that worked out well for Comair, land of dreamers.

So are you saying you would accept less than B6 former payscale for the 190? Because if you are, then I hope you're planning for a long career at RAH. I hope you realize how much your decisions as a pilot group on the pay issue for the 190's will affect the rest of the industry.

Again: IF you're in negotiations JB has established some good ground to stand on regarding payrates. Do you have to match them? No, but dont sell yourself short guys. If the girl on the corner is getting paid 20 for the same service why would you take 10?

Yes, sadly the rates for the E190s are the same as the E170s.
However, I have confidence RAH pilots can change that.
