I hated this company. Didn't think they were doing right by their pilots, given how financially well they performed historically.

With the new contract........ I still hate them! hahahaha

All kidding aside, I actually believe that AS is now a place (not 'THE' place) to hang your hat for a career (Commuters - YMMV).

We don't fly wide-bodies, nor fly to far-off international destinations, but if you're interested in their route network, and the type of flying they do, it's not a bad place to be.

Of course, well see how well this post ages in 5-10 years!
