I said really, “so what is it UAL, AAL, or SWA.” He gave me a giant MW smile and said “United.” I am very happy for him, he drives to work now, but he never intended to stay here. It was never pay, scope, or scheduling… we simply didn’t have a Chicago base. Talk about a false narrative. Put a real honest story out there, don’t sell a lie…. I thought we were the honest ones, I thought we were better then that🤔.
I’ll ask MW but I thought he was from Tacoma, a local boy returning to the Pacific Northwest. Bottom line he did what was best for him and it wasn’t Alaska, especially post merger, especially as a one-percenter.
