Alaska is far too arrogant to let themselves be bought regardless if “end of times” ever comes near.

Alaska is basically printing money. It is a terrible airline to be a pilot for but as far as business success goes, Alaska is hugely successful in the good/fair economy .

I think Alaska allowing themselves to be acquired or a party to another merger is the only route to long term survival. I think Angel Lake is far too in love with the Eskimo to ever give it up. Unfortunately for my former brothers and sisters at Alaska any light at the end of the tunnel is purely conjecture.

Expansion plus an opportunity to try out the 73 alternative?

If they don't like them, they can just return them soon enough.

If they do like them, they have more delivery slots in hand...

I thought it was curious the article didn’t show on the map or even mention Alaska’s presence in Hawaii. Seems either odd or negligent.

Last time I checked Honolulu had 10 daily departures. Alaska serves four different airports in HawaIi.

...overlaid with the 10 airports Alaska has the most departures.

It’s not just domiciles.

JNU, JFK, LAX, SJC, SAN, LAS all show # of Alaska departures. Not domiciles. But not any of Hawaii.... which would now also be an overlap with SWA.

It only shows the top 10 airports for daily departures for each airline.
