Re: Flight Benefits at Air Transat for pilots and their families

is it also true since AT has business class cabin, AT employee can also list on other airlines that has businss class cabin? Not at the moment since AT doesn't have a business class cabin. But that will change when they get a proper business class cabin with the coming 787s. I can find zero referen...

If they did rwy 21 its a fairly steep approach due to terrain, high minimums, and there is a 700 ft displacement
Whats so steep about this approach? Looking at the plate altitudes you can make it quite shallow actually.

Re: So much for growth

I was flying back from Europe a few days ago and heard a Flair callsign while crossing Ireland. I wasn't sure if I heard correctly the first time, but when I heard it the second time, it was definitely Flair.

Curious as to what a Flair bird was doing all the way out there.

Re: TA…HERE IT IS AND IT SUCKS

It's a moot point. They honestly believe this crap of "new company", "ULCC can't pay that much", " First contract in the right direction". You could show them what Avelo, a new ULCC in the states pays their pilots and they''l change the conversation to the US being a different market altogether. Do ...

Re: New Flair Tentative Agreement

As much as I don't agree with the low pilot payscale you have to consider that, Flair is a start up, they don't have too much money. Can't compare Canada, population 38m to the USA, population 340m. Way different market. Compare Canada to Australia then. Roughly the same landmass. 10M smaller popul...

Re: New Flair Tentative Agreement

These are the key changes that will impact the pilots the most. Anything not included in here is because it is status quo from the last contract. So essentially a turd on top of a turd.

Re: TA…HERE IT IS AND IT SUCKS

Yeah thats fair. Either way, I wouldn't be bragging about having the highest first or second year pay when you quickly lag behind everyone else afterwards.

Does anyone have any other information regarding the rest of the TA? There should be much more than just pay.

Yeah, Morningstar and CargoJet also start higher. Morningstar I believe is the highest in Canada at around 90K for a first year FO. A...

The FO side is extremely disappointing. Any other important takeaways from the TA? This is still a TA, correct? Not an arbitrated decision or binding in any way and still needs to be voted on?

Boomers love to call millennials entitled. But the level of entitlement I'm seeing lately from high time pilots its just unbelievable.

Gentlemen,

Discussing the particulars of how big red came out of the other side sin't going to change the fact that the same thing will happen now, that happened then. The pilot group will once again bed over, and take it without lube.
