Alaska does not really work that way..Junior base today is senior tomorrow. New hires are fed in to vacancies created by seat and domicile bid results. Alaska does not get to just hire for a base. If they want pilots somewhere then it goes out to all pilots first to bid on. They might want to add new positions in pdx but it is not likely that those would be left fo a new hire.

Default SFO/LAX?

Heyo I know this question is repetitive, how long to hold SFO or LAX currently for newhires?
I’m a Bay Area native, finally landed an interview and will be moving back west after 4 years on the east coast.
I would be living with family in the SF Bay area.

You are interviewing at the right time if you want SFO, wide open for now.

Could you share when you applied, when you were invited for an interview, and a rough date of when it will be? This is the first I've seen here of any interview action recently.

If one were to accept a class in September or October, would SEA be available or are all new hires going to SFO or LAX?

All current vacancies from the last bid were SFO 737. It’d be anybody’s guess how long it would take to get back to SEA

who knows what’ll be available but it won’t take long to get whatever you want base wise especially if it’s SEA.
