I posted some incorrect info on bonuses so I just deleted it. I also spotted on the Endeavour careers page the FOs make over $50 an hour year one. Thats why classes are full.
Also regarding Envoy, how does a union decide that an airline can't hire people through a completely legal channel? The E3 isn't a skill shortage hole plugging visa. Its open to American and Australian citizens to live and work in each others countries for limited periods of time. Stopped comparing then to 457 style visas. They arent reciprocal.
Another thing happening in the Regional airline world is company hopping. People hang around at one company just long enough to collect the bonus then they move on to the next one.
