I have some dear friends that are probably going to send me a terse text after they read this.
I mean Delta is on a bit of a different level, they could say water dry, sky red and I'd nod and smile.

I also ran into a few Envoy instructors who said Envoy is going to start assigning junior fo's to ca seats, because they don't have enough people bidding ca.
Recruiters at Compass are putting hotel benefits as part of your salary now
I'm sure soon you'll be able to make 100,000 as a starting new hire FO after they include your flight benefits!!!

Get out, really? Ha!
Don't #trigger @Cherokee_Cruiser. He hasn't had his anti-SouthernJets rant for a few days!![]()
Just prior to us starting contract negotiations the Company sent us a "value of benefits" letter to try to justify our low hourly rates. It included reasonable things like our cheaper than average health care premiums, our pretty good VEBA access, and our retiree health plan. It also included an $80k/per year value on our "travel benefits". Even with a family of four, you'd have to travel a whole lot in a year to hit $80,000 of travel.

When they say hotel benefits, do they mean company provided commuter hotels? Or what?
Way too many variables to predict what you will be able to hold beyond the near future. I just completed my 737 CA upgrade training, and I'm very near the 10,500 mark on the list. I can only hold G4 fo in LGA/PHL/MIA. PHL 330 would be the best seniority for me, at 70%, MIA 777 I'm 90%, and LGA 777 95%. I'm near, or over 1,000 #'s away from G4 fo at all the other bases.
When I was over at the school house, I met a guy that has been a 737 ca for the last 18 years, he is going to 787 fo in LAX, and is in his mid/late 50's. I also know a 64 year old 777 fo who just bid 73 ca, so he can retire as a captain.
G3 (767) fo probably isn't worth the small raise, for the QOL hit from G2 (737/bus) fo, unless you live in base, and it's a dying bid status.

I don't know if they have commuter hotels. I took this as hotels on trips/training is now considered part of your salary.When they say hotel benefits, do they mean company provided commuter hotels? Or what?
Congrats on the upgrade. Just curious, what is G4?

I’m not sure how. Good money still but not A LOT more. 85 hrs on G2 is around $160k doing the math.Well, you can make a lot more than 157,000 as a 4 year FO.

It takes around five+ to hold junior G4 slots in Philly.
There were at least two recruiters hired outside of the flow from PSA. So lie for a living and get hired sooner. Seems legit.
In my case, the flow is about 6-7 months away. So why not take the flow? And I am fully aware of where a recession or anything could lead. Hell 8 months after I got hired here I was furloughed. And that lasted about 20 months. Which is short compared to most.What's the point of waiting for a flow?
Apply where you want to go. Besides, where do you think the flow is going during the next recession?
