There's about a 20/80 split in each class of LAX vs. ANC base. Getting your preferred base is subject to timing: If hired during a base position bid, there is a chance you can get to SEA right away. Worst case scenario: plan on ANC base for 12-18 months.

Latest picture shows newhire vacancies in LAX, SEA and ANC. PDX is senior and looks to remain that way.
The long tours in ANC seems to be disappearing. The company actually hired some folks from there who want to be there...go figure.
The last couple bids have had vacancies in all domiciles BUT PDX.
1st year pay right now is:
$52.95
as of 01APR2014, it will be:
$53.74
Reserve guarantee of 79 hrs/month and perdiem $2.15/hr.

Is not using IE 8 a deal breaker? Since I don't own a PC (Mac user) I started the process on Chrome then intended on submitting from IE at work but hit submit button instead of save. Am I screwed? I got an email from AS saying it was submitted but there was no content in email. Only the subject line saying application was submitted. Thoughts?
