Those trips could possibly be coming here.........

Yikes, sorry, should have looked. Didn't occur to me that you wouldn't be done yet

Yeah, pays to be senior I guess.........I've been to AMS several times, but never Paris, should be fun. I've heard they are going to put some LCAs on the flights to make sure everything goes smoothly with us rookies. But, in the words of Mr T.........."I piddy da fool"

I don't know what I want to do with the AE. Indecision is the key to flexibility. LAX is so close, but so many commuters between us guys, United guys and all the RJ kids. I was the #8 jumpseater on the early SWA flight last time I went over on my way to NRT. All off line with no way to check loads etc.......very outside my "rut". SEA would be much farther away, but fewer commuters I think. Plus, NWA had higher than normal nonrev priority on Alaska (a concession they gave us when we quit flying SEA to ANC and all our freight guys needed them for commuting).

Does anyone know if we still have priority nonrev on Alaska?
