Hate to tell you but the pastures are far from greener on the 73 side. The only airbus guys going to the 73 would be so they can be based at home. ie PDX,SEA

True. But in LAX it's a different story. The FOs bid the 737 for the upgrade and some FOs did Boeing for the better relative seniority in LA. On the Airbus side, it was senior Boeing CAs who bid over to be #1 and #2 in base. Can't say I blame them, they're just taking advantage of the system.

Shocking as it may sound but Alaska is in regular contact with Boeing and what Boeing is telling Alaska is the timeline I was sharing.
A lot of Airbus FO’s do significantly better on the Boeing, Captain’s on the Airbus is a different story.

Geez Louise..... whine when you don’t have some intel. Whine when ya do and ridicule the messenger. MEA doesn’t post to say “look at me I’m all knowing”. Just, “here’s what I know of the plan... for now.... hopefully it helps”.
Take it with a grain of salt. Ignore it. Bank on it.... whatever.... but for the love..... quit throwing darts at the messenger.

Guys in 73' miss "their" West coast flying and the Airbus people miss "their" transcons. I guess we'll see when the results are posted...

Not that he/she needs MY defense but, MEA just shares what they know in an effort to convey some data. MEA doesn’t pontificate or prognosticate. It’s just info at the time. It might change. It might not. It’s just data as they have heard/understand it.
