Good to see! A United guy too? Interesting.

I recently flew with an FO that was furloughed Delta. He had finally run out of options and had to decide to go back or stay. I don't know what I would have done but he decide to stay at Alaska.

Tough decision for sure but it's all just a roll of the dice.

Would be interesting to know his story. How long ago did you fly w/ him? If it was 4 years ago that was me...LOL. I loved my time at AS but am more happy here at DAL. But every person has to chose their own path. Interesting he passed up 10 years of DAL Sen & at least 8th year pay to stay at AS.....He would have been able to hold SEA on this last bid as well. Not sure I buy it, or there's more to the story.

Baja.

The last time I flew with him was September. He had just decided to stay at Alaska. I believe living and working near Seattle was his primary concern.

That's big for us. Looks like someone's gearing up for a fight.

Too bad it took the DAL invasion of SEA to get Angle Lake into an aggressive mode.

If they announce they're taking Hawaiian's old 767s, then I'll believe they're getting aggressive.
