Btw... you’re right.... they don’t want commuters. Unfortunately for them (and possibly YOU), they bought about 800 of em with the VX purchase, and, also hired a decent amount of commuters last year, and prob will continue to as the supply of “qualified” pilots dwindles. You are fast becoming the minority my friend. That’s a fact.
ALK is pretty smart. The votes don’t support you at all. Other the lip service, I assure you commutability is not even on the first page of what your union will be looking for as gains this time around. If you knew what I knew, I assure you, you would be shocked.
Remember the SLI, what were all you VXers saying..... relative plus or minus 3%. You were all 100% sure. I was clueless. What did I say? How did it turn out? Almost 70% of this company still drives to work. There is no changing tide. Ask Mea25000, he has even better gouge.
