A MEANINGFUL pay rise (at least 20% plus increment) WILL make a difference to a a large enough percentage that attrition will reduce to primarily retirees and US mainline bound crew. They must reward those who stay-stick and bigger stick no longer crews aircraft. As also stated it will attract more applicants with obvious flow on benefits. No it won't balance immediate QOL issues but it will reverse the tide-which will improve QOL in the mid term. Most do not want to go to China, KAL etc but see no other viable option to maintain longevity/family. Allowing the experience drain to continue has to be hugely detrimental to continued safe operations.
