Unless you think the airline can just eat the cost of raises, I’m not so sure it’s a simple case of class warfare. Airlines operate on very thin margins, so any increase in costs would have to lead to increased prices for customers.
Airlines make record profits every year, and are run on razor thin margins. The wildest thing is that the flights themselves are a loss leader for the insanely profitable travel points scam they’ve been running since the 60s.
Stop extracting 80% of the profits for the investment class from the tourism industry and paying the pilots triple their current wages would be simple.
Never believe a corporation when they complain about labor costs. It’s always a lie

not that simple. stop extracting profits, then no one wants ownership of the company anymore.
so you’re jumping from a relatively minor quirk in labor staffing to a socialist takeover of a multibillion dollar business. be realistic, it ain’t happening.
If everyone “stays realistic” about the way the world is then the reality is the world stays the way it is. If enough people expect the unrealistic outcome then maybe it could be real.
firstly, you don’t have “enough” socialists to make that kind of change, and secondly if you’re stuck in an idealist mindset then you may miss on good solutions just because they aren’t perfect in your opinion.

I’m sure the employees do.

Other than employees already run the business.
Stop carrying water for millionaires.
But how will they stay rich?
i’m not carrying water for millionaires, just being realistic about the capitalist world we live in.
