More accurately, They are a brand and nothing more. The most bitter, angry people on the Alaska Airlines seniority list come from the Horizon Air seniority list. The nastiness that Alaska uses against Horizon pilots trying to get hired just stuns me. The old Horizon guard that get hired just find a place to hide out and survive the rest of their careers. The younger crowd, wisely, seem to be adding an Airbus and or Boeing type rating on their way to a real career airline. I feel so bad for the gals/guys that get hired from Horizon. I just keep my fingers crossed for them that they get what they need here and get out before they are trapped.
