The AIP is almost $30/hr less than the Alaskan deal and new hires get $8,500 a month.
It also includes $1k per month per diem so $2,500 a month but still horrible.
The 12 year CA pay matches AK but everything else is insulting.
What’s negative? What I said is exactly correct. 12 year NK would be $306 dos and $318.24 dos +1 with the 321 override that NK pilots get every month. It’s exactly the same. But yeah, everyone else on the scale is way below.
Is that paid when only flying the -321?
No it’s an average. Even if you never fly a 321 you still get it. $306 is essentially the effective pay rate due to the amount of block hours that 321’s fly per month. 321 pay is technically 10% more than 320 pay and after it’s averaged out it equals a 2% pay bump across the board.
This has always been in place at NK, not new. It’s the same as looking at Delta’s rates and how their 320 rates are lower than their 321. Instead of getting paid on a leg by leg basis it just blends both rates and every flight pays the same regardless of type.
I bet it drives you insane that these bridge numbers from a ULCC match your new top legacy rates. Yes it’s only the top rate that matches but still…
I personally think you’ll take any position on any topic as long as it allows you to be argumentative. When NK was working on the last contract you stuck your “ legacy “ nose in the air and said there were “tiers” of airlines and people who didn’t work at legacies were foolish to ever expect legacy rates. Maybe not word for word but that was the jist of your argument. Now it makes you insane if people aren’t happy with what they have? Thank goodness your negotiating committee had a stronger spine than you do. I’ve never expected delta rates at NK but I’m thankful to them for raising the tide. By the way, keep trying to get hired at Delta, your sexual tension with them is sickening.
