190's? Sure, they belong at mainline.
But the problem is if you merge existing RJ flying, the RJ pilots will want a longevity-based SLI. You cannot legally staple them unless they volunteer to be stapled. OO you can get rid of by letting the contracts run out. But you'd probably have to threaten to shutdown QX and transfer the assets (ala Tranny)... how's that staple sound now? |

Serious question: how do you get from here to there?

Yes. And AS ALPA does not want to do an SLI with QX. They would rather COMAIR them first, for good reason.

I really don’t see how this could not be done with fences and b scale? I mean isn’t this like every airline in Europe?

We had 100 seat 737-200’s, 124 seat 737-700’s, 140 seat MD 80’s, 144 seat 737-400’s, 156 seat 737-800’s and 172 seat 737-900’s (w/ mid-cabin lavs) all for the same hourly rate....Where does a plan to bring in an A220-300 that flys trans con, can do etops and seats 115 -145 pax fit into that. Even a 195-E2 can fly 110 -140 depending on config...Why should we accept less money to fly a significantly more capable airframe then we have already had. Pre chinaflue Alaska had an RFQ out to Boeing for 700MAX, Airbus for 220-300 and Embraer for E195-E2. In Alaska managements mind those 3 airframes are equal period. So they pay equal....Jetblue just created a permanent B scale by allowing the A220-300, an airframe that hauls just as many pax as a 319, flies further and costs less to operate , to be flown for less....

Easy, integration based on Alpa years of service. 170/190 pay 4th year AS FO rates starting and up, 170/190 FO rates 65% of AS FO rates, top at year 5. It's not going to happen though, check back in 5 years this will all be silly bickering.
In the worst year in aviation history my CA friends got 18-22K bonus, most FO friends 8-9K. This is embarrassing everyone. We work for a good company, show up do a good job and enjoy. Trust your union to fix what needs fixing. We are about on target, let’s see what the summer brings. Relax, enjoy, and let yourself arrive! |

Wait. You have friends that are FOs? Did you tell them you were salivating to lick their furlough envelopes stamp it and rejoice when when they were on the street? It's amazing how you've changed your tune so much. Attachment 6033
Like I was serious 😂. You come on here, appearing to struggle with numbers, letters, shapes, and colors. I honestly find it hard to believe you are really an Alaska pilot. The funny thing is, most my friends that are FO’s at AS have IQ’s of 125 or higher. I struggle with drivel and dude, all you write on here is drivel . |

I struggle with numbers? That’s rich coming from the guy who predicted our furlough to a tenth of a percent. You must be bummed. You were looking forward to seeing your crying FO “friends” at the Wally Mart in Gig Harbor. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
700MAX all the way at one rate, absolutely. But that still doesn’t fix the outsourcing.
