This Scopeless contract is just the gift that keeps on giving the whole year through Clark.

This is just not true... The CSM for the 175 is to high to remain viable. Alaska management knows the need at least 180 NB on the back end of this to make it. The 175 can plug short term holes but are not a long term solution.

Why do we have 175s with Horizon crews flying from Seattle to Kansas City then?

Ok I’ll try again:
If we have 60 bookings going to Kansas City from Seattle in October who do you think will fly it? Horizon or Alaska?
Why do we have the strategy of developing a market with a 175 and then switching to a 737 when the bookings allow?
It’s cheaper to run a 175 when you don’t have a full aircraft. And the bottom 1/2 of the seniority will suffer for it.
Not that the majority of the pilots in the last 1000 seniority numbers left at AS will care. They didn’t ask for scope and during the last furlough they were picking up premium.
I listened to the guys who were furloughed last time when I flew with them on reserve. It’s every man for himself at AS when times are hard.
