Looks good on the pay side. Crazy that 3rd year FOs are making as much as new Canadian captains.

[Tbayer2021]

Multiply the numbers on the chart by 1.149 to get equivalent hourly wage for any given YOS. So 1st year cpt is 334/h while top rate is 364.52/h. First year FO is 133.75/h and top rate 255/h.

A First year Southwest FO makes what a Flair 3rd year Captain is making.

/s It's different flying

[Inverted2]

I showed the old lady that payscale and she’s just about ready to make me a tinder profile for US layovers.

Canadian wages are a disgrace. Paid half, Dollar worth much less, Taxed much more.

Would sure be nice if some that corporate generosity would make it up here, oh wait, we don’t do the same work, right? At least that’s what the gaslighters would have us think.

Here is United 2024 as well

Solution is pretty obvious.

Go work for Southwest.

Go work for Southwest.

Solution is - divorces are affordable. Make sure the divorce is complete on the Canadian salary. It's time to go down and hook up, get married and fly for a major.

Aye carumba lol

There is no such thing as corporate generosity.

Do we fly to the same airports as Southwest Airline, don’t bother answering it was rhetorical.
AC funnels American passengers to the hubs and on to points elsewhere at a huge discount, different markets my ass!

Exactly man, i hope you understood my sarcasm LOL

Nope, missed it, hard to tell on this site with so many company shills.

False

You're absolutely correct!

SW Year 1 FO $116 USD = $156 CAD
Flair Year 3 Capt = $158.82

A year 1 FO makes $2.82 LESS than an year 3 captain. So sorry for my inaccuracy!

Now lets compare what these two employees get to keep after STD, LTD, medical/dental, retirement savings/401k, mortgage payments and of course taxes.

[Smilin' Jack]

And really, the fact that you are able to compare a first year FO to any level of Captain is shameful.

[CaptDukeNukem]

Nope, missed it, hard to tell on this site with so many company shills.

The every second letter uppercase should have been a dead giveaway.

But yea, same airports, like you said. And still getting slam dunked like southwest. Maybe they save money on the taxi in doing 42 kts.

[paytoplay]

Southwest pays pilots per trip. As a result, you need to multiply those rates by 1.149 to determine the hourly rate.

So year 1 FO is actually $133.75 US per hour which is $173.88 CAD.

Sorry to make it worse.

Just showing my age again, I had to search this type of typing, it’s young people text for mocking, now I know.

And a year two WN FO makes more than a year 6 WestJet Captain. What's you point? Wages in Canada are shameful. We all agree already, but thanks for shitting on my company instead of yours.
