On the west, a captain gets $145 to fly anything from a 737 PHX-LAS to an A340 PHX-say, NRT.

What's wrong? Couldn't figure out the math based on productivity?

Thanks for the update on the contract. Would anyone know how many more jobs might be created by the additional aircraft?

Interesting. You mean that your "career expectations" never envisioned even the slightest possibility of larger aircraft?

What about HP old DASH-8 is that rate still in HP contract. PI/express has some that can fly.Parker has said in the pass that the rate of pilot pay should be the same regardless of how many passengers are in the back

All dashes are mesa, our pilot's haven't flown them in years, since the first bk. Only airbus and boeing a/c.

But the rate did/do still exist and HP mainline flew them and the DASH 8 are still on the property. The A340 isn’t even on the property and US/east mainline has a rate.Sense HP had B747 does HP have a rate for 747 767 777 787 or equality

 

[john john]

Only airbus and boeing a/c.

The A330 and A340 are airbus why doesn’t HP have rates to fly them or equality aircraft

 

[700UW]

Because they never had them on order and never intended on getting them.

The dash isn't US property, or old HP. The dashes are all Mesa Airlines now. The HP pilots have nothing to do with the pay rates with old a/c. The Hp pilot's have bigger wages on all airbus a/c, except the widebody in the East, including the 767. It amazes me that 500 East pilots will be senior to all West pilots with the Nicolau award, yet all the rest of the pilot's are up in arms with the result. More pay for the seniors. If you do the math, and settle one contract, all will result in major pay raises, but some fo's will be junior to Westies. I don't see the big deal, but cut throat politics!!

Just think about US flight attendants that didn't have an Arbitrator to help us with our seniority issue, we are STUCK with DATE OF HIRE, period! So you PSA fa's can come into PHX and take over!!!??? I hope there aren't that many...We love you, but let's play fair deal, okay????

The dash isn't US property,

A couple of years ago when this merger was created, I could honestly say there wasn't going to be that many F/A's who wanted to transfer out West, But, now that the East is starting to close bases and seniority on the East Coast is stacking higher and higher you are not only gonna see West Coast commuters come out there but other F/A's that can have a better schedule or who can get off reserve. God forbid PHX ever gets TransAtlantic flying, PHX would get super senior super quick! Have that scuba gear ready....the boats are loading up!
