I like Alaska and all you guys/gals are great but it doesn’t compare to the other opportunities that are available to people. I hope you guys vote it down. Don’t get quarterback faked!

Fair enough, if you are here and don’t want to be, please do yourself a favor and leave.

4 of best people in know at AS are either on the NC or on the MEC right now. We are not getting hoodwinked, we got a great deal, it will only get better. These gentlemen would not have sent this out, if it wasn’t the best deal they thought they could get. The rest of the stuff everyone is running their mouth about is pixie dust and speculation. We know what other MECs expect, we know where we will go when they move, most on here, all of the angry 30 are clueless. I am in my 40’s with more then 14 million, I am pretty sure I know the difference between good deal and 💩. But yes, listen to the broke penniless x-VX 30, they have always had the world on a string!

This is a TA that meets what will soon be out of date contracts in the industry. It's the windows explorer of TAs because it's years behind everyone else. Not industry leading. Vote no on this.

To the prospective hires, I give you exhibit A. If you ever feel dissatisfied, you will be met with derision and encouraged to move on.

This is embarrassing. Been here for over 15 years, just made my mind up to start applying elsewhere after seeing this. And yea, I’m a Captain, and a line holder. I’ll be voting no, but I think it’s time to leave this regional airline. It’s guys like this who have ruined this place during my time here, and before. Future guys coming here, after seeing this take my advice……. don’t. With disappointment.

Yep I sure am. There is more to the pairing construction that makes our contract better than it looks. Built into the baseline pairing cost is trip distribution rules. We won’t get stuck with all longer or shorter trips. Also 60% of all trips over 3 days have to start after 12 and end before 1800.
