Its APC. The only thing to be here is mad about everything.

Almost every position bid since Covid has had junior captains who can’t hold captain anywhere else upgrade in SFO. 80-100 FO vacancies in LAX and SFO who try to get out soon as they can. Clearly, nobody wants SFO/LAX as a new hire because if they did they’d go to Delta or United.

Alaska finally reached the mythical threshold they’ve placed for the past 25 years to open a pilot San Diego base that the flight attendants have had for 20 years and everyone here is mad as hell. I’d assume at least 4% of a west coast airline pilot group live south of LAX and would bid San Diego, causing minimal need for displacement. Half of LAX pilots live in Temecula/Murrieta and do SNA trips already.
