I think that’s jumping at shadows and there’s an awful lot that could occur between now and then.

A good friend of mine is also in the Denver training center and told me the same thing. According to him the issue is the planes aren’t coming fast enough, not a lack of will on UA’s part. Exactly as...

I’m guessing most people here would agree. Not sure what should’ve been done differently given what was happening at the time though?

A quick google says up to $100k increasing with experience. Who knows where it tops out but there isn’t the upfront cost of entry, nor the years of earning a pittance before you can get an interview...

Also, didn’t SH used to do a lot of the flying that Network now does? So the flying was profitable paying SH wages then, the company just set up a lower paying subsidiary to increase profits. It will...

Gotta agree with this sentiment. I’m very skeptical but I’d love to be wrong. When do you say we should expect to hear something?

I think as much as anything else, the issue is that successive governments have made it so difficult for the unions to achieve much.

Sounds like a big opportunity for the pilot group if played correctly!



Even if you think that’s the case, the pilot body just have to keep voting no to rubbish offers. As Network have. If the...

I’d guess that there won’t be any change to the 350 or 787 SO pay scales, but it might make a difference to the 380 (possibly 330) SO pay scales and the new vs old rates. Who knows. Those fleets will...

Hasn’t it already been announced that Sydney and Perth will be the initial bases? Clearly they’ll be based all over eventually but who knows the timeline or order.

I agree with this sentiment. From what I recall the pay rises in the states started with the lower paying companies.

A significant payrise for Network can only be a good thing for the industry.

1 & 2 are far more valid reasons to go somewhere than 3. If you’re in a dire emergency then the closest runway where you can stop is the place to go. It may help if you’re familiar with it, but look...
