Re: Westjet pay.
Keep in mind Bruce that although WJ pay is lower this is going to change. It will go up in the near future to come be comparable to AC 320 pilots. Market forces. The pension at AC is good but does it have a huge hole? Most think it will be gone for newbies soon enough. Also remember that by global stanards AC pays on the low side for major carriers. This is reality. You guys make a good living but there are better. I am not talking about the middle east either.
If I was working at AC I would be not looking down to WJ but up at carriers that are in the same market. Then maybe you will get paid what you should be.
My two cents....
