Cant run a big boy airline off credit card loyalty......despite what Angle Lake manipulates in polling.

Alaska will make $550,000,000.00 in 2018
Average expectation for 2019 is $765,000,000.00
We will make $1B in 2019! Because Angle Lake is clueless and doesn’t know how to run a “big boy airline”

Yup your Cockpit is enormous
Yup your extra 8 inches is awesome
Oh your extra inch, oh yeah I feel that.
Oh your bathroom, I twirl around like a ballerina.
Who cares, what does it PAY!
Airbus “follow the leader”
If it’s not Boeing “I am not going” I just don’t care, there both just NB jets but in 2020 I better be making at least $285 an hour to fly one of them!

And if you're comparing notes with Southwest and how they utilize their 737s, you should look at the whole picture.
- They don't fly redeyes
- They don't fly 6 hour transcons
- They have several hubs located in the middle of the country
So unless Alaska has a St. Louis base in its future, you should stop copying off of Southwest's homework.

What will SWA make in 2020?
What will Delta, United, American?Surprisingly, that is the only number you will be able to achieve. You will not make $350hr on a NB when the top of the industry is the mid $280’s. You sir are a moron. This industry will move forward from this point at 3-5% a year increases over the next decade.
2020 $285
2021 $299
2022 $315
2023 $330
2024 $346
2025 $364
This is the top of our industry over the next 6 years on a NB. We will not achieve those numbers but if we are smart and push harder then we have ever pushed before we might end up very very close. Now fix section 25

They couldn't fly red eyes because their scheduling computers could not handle it.
They do fly 6 hour trans cons.... BWI to SAN to name one. RDU to SJC.... and they don't feed you anything but pretzels.
Who wants to stop and change planes? I don't.

I have worked the Baltimore to San Diego red eyes as well as many of our other trans con red eyes. The flights are pretty consistently full or close to it. Unless we're giving away the fares at a loss I'm confident that Alaska's making money on them. The red eyes, though tiring to fly, also keep the utilization of the fleet high.
