Sure! As long as they’re flown by pilots on the Southwest Airlines seniority list.

Some of the other players around here are a little distracted right now...

I take this and all such rumors with a 95% dose of skepticism, but... it does sort of make sense in general, and specifically right now with HA suffering more from covid than most.

What's to say if AS gets HA that they dont pull out of Hawaii and stick with AK and the west coast like how they pulled out of Virgin America routes?
that or even with the combination SW still runs them out?

If it happens it will be Virgin America rinse and repeat.... 717 and 321(ours and theirs) gone by 2025. 330’s gone by 2027...We adopt their 330 payscale for all fleets and fence everything until fleets are gone(exception being the 321)...Go down very near date of hire...Everything but west coast goes to code share/alliance. Interisland is a small flock of old QX turbo props...
What say you OTZ?

That's exactly his point and it's what they did with Virgin America

The more pressing question will be what time the van is tomorrow in Herb?
Don’t you mean what time do we “lobby”?

It has been my experience that some people should never buy things at auctions or perhaps not even attend auctions. They get caught up in a bidding war and pay an unreasonable price for something that - after the purchase - they really don’t know what to do with...
