The attrition leverage? Yes, it is, but not in any great numbers to make a large difference.

That’s embarrassing for a Major

Yes, it will be interesting to see how attrition shapes up. I'm not holding my breath though. I know a Skywest CA who interviewed and was not hired. I thought she was a good person and would have been a positive addition, and the type who would stick around here long term. Clearly they didn't like her or thought different. This place is still picky. I know people who have applied but haven't been called, and cases like her that interviewed but got the no thanks.
There isn't desperation - yet anyway. |

Fact remains no matter how good the contract can be at a LCC/Major/smaller legacy, the seniority movement, widebody fleet type, and bases of the big 3 are not something an airline like AS or B6 can deliver on. |

jetBlue attrition about 1 a day so far this year as well.

Not every pilot has SJS. Not every pilot needs an east coast base. Maybe some pilots want a place that doesn't run them ragged and where you won't be written up for grabbing a soda. The arrogance to constantly assume the motivations of the pilots, management, and even the NMB is staggering. |

Yup… It’s about Sodas, Ragged, and Respect. It is never about BENJAMINS…. At least not for me, I am only here for the Respect! 😂😂😂 |

Shy, don’t try and obfuscate the truth. There is only one airline who’s pilots are leaving in droves. It is a west coast super regional. It is the worst of the worst, I can feel it with all my heart. No one would ever leave SWA, Spirit, JetBlue, Frontier, and Sunny. I mean those are all quality airlines that value and respect each and everyone of their pilots. Pilots are only leaving Alaska, because this place is insufferable. AS SUCKS, AS SUCKS, AS SUCKS!🙄🙄🙄😂

You'd be surprised how far respect and a quality cba would go to slowing attrition. You don't know it because you've never seen it. |

Wait. You said money wasn't an issue because you all have Real Estate / Bitcoin / Onlyfans empires.

I never said money wasn’t an issue. I almost knocked down 500k last year punching a time clock here. You can never have enough, I am definitely here for the Benjamins… I am pretty sure I have enough, I am also positive I will never have enough. Good luck finding that balance in your own life. One day I will walk, respect will never have kept me here. The friendships, adventures, free healthcare, and those two checks a month I will miss. If you want respect, go do something noble, make a difference, change a life… don’t punch a time clock expecting respect!
