aviator2010 - that's a first yr Captain's wage. ((91 x 70) x 12)
-they don't have first year captians (1 year credit for 2 years worked)

-their minimum block is 77.5

-the ESP is 2 for 1 on the purchase

-they have yet to not recive a profit share check although I think they just barley squeaked one out for Mar 09
They have a 6% 401K top-up. Regardless... pretty inexpensive
I'm not sure where you got this info but being it's a canadian company with canadian crews there is no 401K nevermind a contribution (possibly for their U.S. employees) but deffinitly not for flight crews

$75 000 is an average T4 for a second year FO working an extra day or 2 a month

It turns out I will be on them for 7 hours in April and I was counting on the onboard TV to keep the kidlets entertained (at least for a couple hours). Am I going to have them (and possibly myself) sedated now?

Merry Christmas All!

Hey there. The 757 will have recently released movies and music available on board the aircraft. Since our TV's stop working a couple of hours off shore on the 737, you will find there is more to keep the kiddies occupied on the 757. They also have the ability to serve hot food. Whether or not WJ will go with that option is yet to be seen. Hope that helps and enjoy your flight!

Thanks Lisa, with that news I am sure they (and their Mother and I) will enjoy the trip.

Are they individual seat-back tvs?

No I don't think so. Old tech after all, but you never know.

how goes the 757's. what's the fix if the plane goes mechanical? does NAA have crews and spares in both locations?
