The thing to remember: At Alaska, Captains can't maintain a "no fly" list. That privilege is only extended to F/Os. The reason is the manner in which the bids are awarded. Captain bids are awarded first.
When the F/O bids are awarded if you draw a Captain on your "no fly" list you default to your next choice.
Captains are expected to be able to fly with anyone.

One would think... but alas. I’ve shipped out to pick up the jet and stranded passenger for CRM/Safety issues, as above. One would hope that the problem could be nipped in the bud prior to departure where a plethora of crew are available.

I would suggest that people be very careful. Their jobs could be threatened if they were reported to be the cause of a hostile workplace. No matter what one thinks, and how vehemently, it's not worth your job.

I can't see a huge amount of conversation coming up during the preflight, but when you're flying six hours over the ocean, that's a lot of time to kill.

I can easily and frequently do fly 6 hours without idle chit chat....Never have understood the need to “vomit” all over a complete stranger. Frequently never have seen or heard of the copilot before and likely will not see them again....and likely dont want to see or hear from them again either.....Layovers are to get a little rest and time away from the stranger that you are trapped like a rat with in a 6’x5’ cell for hours on end

Something tells me your 'copilots' share your sentiments.
