So with that in mind, for SEA/ANC guys, since PBS is on the way, are there dedicated cargo pairings, or are they just interspersed within various pairings? I didn’t look to see if there was a “cargo” selection in the “Avoid Pairings” side.

They're discrete pairings. And you can bid to avoid them using avoid pairings=>aircraft type=>7GF/8GF. Although nobody that doesn't want them is going to get them, they go pretty senior.

That’s incorrect, this year’s CQ is not in SE Alaska…

Hey, question: This merger goes through...are they going to maintain separate branding/pilot groups or are the two companies going to combine under one name?

The CQ is in Boise because they’re going to integrate the Horizon seniority list into Alaska’s and open a Boise base.
