Alaska no longer requires a degree. Why don’t you talk down to half of the new guys too.

Alaska needed VX more than VX needed Alaska at the time, that is a fact. Our precious management let Delta take over the PNW and needed to buy someone, anyone, to prevent their demise. Look around, no one is threatened by AS because they know mgmt has no clue. Spirit, frontier, and even f-ing sun country is expanding in SEA. Traffic is up in Sonoma county but AS traffic is down there. We cancel a bunch of routes while B6 increases on the same routes. Now we are letting southwest whip our butts in the west.
