I am talking about pilots.... as far as F/a's they all make the same..... as far as agents... I have not a clue :blink:
Rumors of LCC's demise have been greatly exaggerated!

Ok Prove me wrong... as I said... don't know about agents... but know that the f/a's pay is almost exact... do know that the West has better vacation
better sick leave.....
but pay is about the same...
as far as pilots go... West makes more per hour...

F/A pay isn't the same.
East f/a's make more than the West...by a long shot.

I think that should've read LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG Shot.
True. The west vacation is much better than the east contract, but that won't change until the pilot contracts are completed, and the chances of that being completed is a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG Shot.
golly shucks!

I wouldn't go as far as to say FA pay is almost exact because if I were hired under East contract and pay, I'd be making about $22/hr instead of $17. That's quite a chunk. AWA pays peanuts compared to US.
As far as agents, they're under one contract. Their pay is equal across the system.
West pilots do make more than East.
The American West agnets got a $5.00 a hour guarantee raise TOS under the USAirway CWA contract

As far as agents yes we are under one contract but we are not at equal pay.....
We are suffering still from the last bankruptscy....we took a step back pay freeze that did not affect the west...they were brought up to our pay scale but if you were hired before 2005 and were not topped out you are now at least 2 yrs behind and then throw in the E scale pay that affected us hired before 99 and its way off...thats why we are awaiting an arbitrators decision
The company and the CWA threw us under the bus
You wonder why we are bitter...the company thinks its fine for an original US agent to make 15.00 an hour and the west counterpart with the same seniority to make 18.00...under the same contract
Is that fair
We will see how strong the language is in the contract
Thank GOD for CWA during bankruptcy or the agnets would be making 13.09 TOS merit pay like America West agents were. Management try during bankruptcy it took a strike vote and hard negotiation to get the pay scale. There is no question American West agents made out. I hope for your sake CWA gets the award with back pay.
:cop: The original topic is LCC stock and analysts' recommendations. How did we get off on to f/a and pilot pay rates? Please, stick to the topic or the thread will be closed. If you want to debate pay scales, please start a thread on that topic. Thank you.

The US economy is on the verge of collapse .... Today British Airways CEO Willie Walsh predicted another 30 "weak" airlines could go out of business before Christmas. He said "Let's see how the financial markets react to all of this today. Strap in for a bumpy ride."
