Re: hiring at Jazz!!!

Re: Air Canada take home pay??
I've stated this before and I'll repeat it again. One of the problems is that entry level positions are low ranking to begin with. An RP position or FO on an airplane the size of an Emb do not pay good money anywhere. It's not just an AC problem, it's industry wide. Have a look at down south. You'l...
