Poetic license, that’s a good one. Goes to show that one doesn’t need a 4 year college degree to write or for that matter, safely operate an airliner for a living.
By definition, Alaskan Airways is a legacy but I like your label better. Alaskan will continue to fly the “thicker” routes for Skywest and assist with their growth plan. Go team!
