Right now.. the big three agreeing to anymore would be less likely than..... having Jesus as SLF. Once flying gets impacted is the only way they will react... this summer is going to be nuts..

Im not at rah and hope the best for you kids as this impacts us all..

I know my company, PDT, was offered 20 dollar an hour increases across the board and our NC turned it right down.
Didnt our PDT NC only start with the company today? How did we get offered that so quick and everyone know about it?

Did I read that correct, that your new TA allows Republic to offer unlimited bonuses to new hires?

If so, that's dangerous territory. Definitely opening Pandora's box. Better off keeping that box closed.

The box is already open, which is not helping our cause. It’s a horrible idea for labor, which could result in pilots not even on seniority list getting compensated. They can leave that in if they pay everyone the same compensation. Very slippery slope.

Is the TA still not public or accessible yet to non rjet pilots? Any way to get a copy or check it out?

Thanks!

Thanks!


All I’ve seen is the executive summary. Sounds like they will release the actual LOA before the end of this week.

With that being said a lot of people are saying we get 17,500 or 20,000 bonuses. Not true. Some of us are still at 10,000 or 15,000. My bonus was 10,000 1,500 if which was paid during our pit full training checks. After IOE I will get probably $5000-$6000 with taxes. Bonuses aren’t all rainbows and sunshine.

There have been several last year that I flew with that come in bragging about it. Things like "look at my new Apple watch or Bose headset that the company gave me along with my bonus money, this place sure is great!"

So while I don't hate them for receiving it I do not appreciate them being boastful of it either as some of us have never received such a thing in our many years here.

There's not even anything that nice in the gift "catalog" you can pick from for 15 years of service!

I've heard this rumor told in so many different forms I have a hard time believing it is true.

As you should. Lots of tall tales on this forum.

That's funny, because RAH's NC was spouting the same bs!? Now they come out with this pos. Good luck at PDT, hope you do get it.

It’s not a bonus. It’s a forgivable loan. If you leave the company in less than two years, you must pay a pro-rated amount back. So you are incentivized to stay for two years. It is a commonly used tactic to prevent jumping.
