Re: The Reserve Life
Hey there, I know it's about 6 years at YYC to hold a block, but how is life on reserve? Do you find you get time off you request? Is there overtime available or any open flying at all? Financially are you able to travel and live well? Additionally, I've heard talk about one seniority list with Enc...

Re: Westjet blocking average
:oops: 6.35 hours per day. That’s horrible. Works for me, that's actual flight time. With trip rigs and the rest, the credit ends up being more. So like I said I work 12 days a month. And that's not doing single days. Guys working single days work less days. Lots of variety for what ever work you p...

Re: New payscale
The wages don't matter without scope. It doesn't matter if you make 400/hr when someone else is doing your flying

Re: AIP is dogshit
Long time lurker, first time poster in these WJ specific threads (i think). I've been at WJ for just over 15 years. Long time commuter and a family man. I'll be the first to tell you that I don't consider myself contract savvy. I don't have other carriers contracts in my ipad and memorized on a whi...

Re: AIP is dogshit
Sorry, I didn't ask for it and most of my friends didn't, so I'm not sure where your getting everyone from. Had they left the 20% WSP with no match it still would have done a lot for take home. So you'd prefer your 20% in the WSP rather than 10% in the WSP and 10% extra wage? Bede, can you point to...

Re: Flair reciprocal jumpseat
I believe flair kept reciprocal jump open for WJA pilots on furlough as well. Classy move

Re: Yr 1-3 take home pay
Canadaflyer nailed it. You likely won't be able to pick up much overtime working 18 days a month to get anywhere close to the numbers vanguard is talking about. The system changes in Feb. It will be a lot harder for a new hire.

Re: Sunwing/Westjet
