At this point I think there is a higher chance of a furlough in the next couple years vs new hires.

By the end of 2023, Alaska will have grown 35% but have the exact same number of NB airframes as 2019. Let that sink in! Then consider we will require about 200-300 fewer pilots to staff this fleet then the previous one. Whatever SWA gets this next time around, we need 3% on top of them. Even with that AS management would have us working for a discount when compared to our peers.

You should apply to our mainline carrier American Airlines. They announced they’re planning on hiring this Fall. We might need to hire again after we negotiate a flow through. 😉

I understand that our other sister-carrier OO is also running new hire classes. I suppose good for both of them....No Question as to why. Alaska Airlines can get a fully crewed Horizon jet and a fully crewed Skywest jet for less then it costs to crew a single Alaska jet. 2.5 to 1 deal....
