Alaska hiring projections
 

2019: 120
2020: 300
2021: 300

Hope this helps someone. Obviously very fluid at this point. We will see how current events pan out, which could have a significant impact on these numbers going forward.

Does that include the B6 merger? Kidding. Kind of.

Take whatever they say and divide by two. So, really:

2019: 60
2020: 150
2021: 150

Yes, I am very cynical.

3000 by 3000

Meh not really, how many were we supposed to hire in 2018 before they abruptly completely stopped hiring? Like 400? :rolleyes:

Unprecedented growth continues!

THERE'S STILL TIME!!! Keep the faith!

Here, drink more kool aid. You seem parched. :D

Well the company said 400... Last September I told everyone 160... you can fact check it. I think my numbers will be pretty accurate baring a significant recession.

How close was I last September for 2018?

Unprecedented just may happen my friend... check back spring of 2019 😉
I think you should quit and go to United. Everyone knows this place is cavitating, destined to be a forever dead end bottom of the barrel regional!

A friend of mine who's still at Alaska (but aggressively seeking a job elsewhere) sent me JL's latest e-mail and what a joke. 50% reduction in growth is what I've read. Is that right? Scary what people will write and do for money.

They went from 8% growth down to 4, now down to 2%. I’m surprised the board is okay with lack of plan and direction. Also, JL’s email really made a lot of people upset.

2000 pilots by the year 2000.

They're clever with slogans. But that doesn't match the QX guys:

80s for 80 for 80: MD-80s 80 hours a month for $80K.
