Why do people think you should get paid more for flying bigger jets
I'm reminded of the little old lady asking the Captain "When do you fly more carfeully, with 100 passengers on board, or 200?", his reply, "I don't care how many passengers are on board, I only care about arriving safely myself, I don't even think about the passengers". No argument there for a pay rise based on passenger numbers.
Another view, if an aircraft is introduced that has double the passenger load over and above the previous that means only half the number of crews are required (all other things being equal). Hands up those who want to lose their job?
