Of the legacy carriers, American provides the second highest maximum hourly rate based on current work schedules. American also provides the second highest license premium, the highest instructor premium and the highest longevity pay.

American is committed to providing opportunities for dispatchers to increase their earning capacity through a results- or outcome-based compensation system that shares financial rewards consistent with the performance of the company and the productivity of dispatchers.

Like all other compensation issues, wage and pay rates will be considered as part of a total dispatcher cost per block hour to achieve competitive costs.
