if they call you its 150%. But they are to busy to call for stuff like that. You just need to set text alerts and keep a eye on sked+.. 200% was several years ago. Doubt it will make a comeback….

Ok thanks. If I get what you're saying if they physically call you, it's 150% but instead they just text you so it's a lower percentage at 115% or whatever other amount to be attractive enough for people to pick up the trips?

Again I'm on the outside and ignorant, but it seems to me that if Skywest wants to prevent a union from coming then they'll need to keep the contract competitive. No?

Yeah I call BS on Delta CJO holders from before COVID not having a class date. All CJO holders have been given a class date and Delta started interviewing off the street. A buddy interviewed Monday and was told he would be in a September class.

nope. Lots of schedule trimming as the flying public retreats from flying due to the delta variant. Major partners have pulled way back. Even Southwest said numbers are plummeting and they expect to make a loss again next quarter as cancellations increase. But go ahead and keep that head of yours in the sand.

Where did I say they don’t have a class date? I said they haven’t STARTED CLASS yet.

I’ll say it again, they need to raise CA rates or create a “career progression” to hold the attrition numbers to manageable levels. I’m sure management already has something worked up if/when the time comes. Just as they have that “up to” 40k bonus for NH’s in their back pocket.

When they raised FO’s rates out of nowhere back in late 2018 (after we already negotiated a new contract), it was due to decreased applicants, so they fixed it.

All in the PPM and I'm too lazy to look up the specific numbers but: The 115% is for company open time trips something like two weeks out with reserve staffing at some % less than Min Reserve required.
130% kicks in at something like 10 days out again with Reserve staffing below a certain percentage of Min required.
150% kicks in 5 days out, and crew scheduling can immediately put a reserve on it, or they have to assign it to the first pilot who tried to pick it up. SInce we're almost always below min staffing any trip in company open time will end up in one of those categories, it's just pilots playing the bidding game of I'm willing to pick it up eventually, or being afraid someone else is willing to do it for less. The better the trip, the more likely it is to go for straight time on the 22nd, and the worse trips end up waiting til 150%, or get broken up and assigned to reserves from throughout the system.
JrMan is in reality an outdated term from when they would start calling in reverse seniority number from the most JrMan available, and involuntarily assigning flying at 150% to the first sucker that answered their phone. Just as Jetski refers to any personal watercraft, or band-aid means a self adhesive bandage, JrMan is still used to mean 150% pay for company posted open time trips, but now you can answer the phone say I'm not willing to fly and there is no consequence or complaint sent to your chief pilot.
