I’m sorry, what do you expect?

Got a call that one of my FAs had Covid for a turn I did out of SEA. What do you expect the company to do? Do you think a fair response would be that they should reach out to the other working crew members and inform them? And once called, what should they do? Remove them from their trips? Or ask them if they are vaccinated? I told them I was vaxxed and they said no action required as long as I had no symptoms. It’s a crappy situation. Wouldn’t have to be this way if crews would just get the vaccine.


How nice of you to call me stupid for filling out my vaccine attestation. I know it’s popular for ex-VX on APC to hate all things Alaska, but so far they are simply trying to make the best of a crappy situation. Btw, I’m no lawyer, but a search online shows it is not illegal for a company to ask if you’ve taken the Covid vaccine (in a yes / no format). What lawsuit? I certainly hope none of my dues go to sue this. And if it ends up in a lawsuit, prepare to lose. Judges recently have sided on the side of protecting against Covid.

...But for all you wannabes make sure your vaccination is on your resume 😉you won't get hired without it. Also are you pregnant? Can they ask that?

Oh spare us the persecution complex. You weren't getting a special lanyard anyway because masks are still required on the airplane (at least I understood that part of the email to read that it was directed towards corporate employees)

Come on over to Delta. It has become mandatory for new hires as of 2 months ago.

Copy ShyGuy, I understand you're just trying to get off of the **** pile at the bottom of the CA seniority list by luring more new victims in the door but give these wannabes a break, at least the smart ones on the fence will have a better chance with their future knowing what they're in for.
Plus as smart as you are ShyGuy, you are missing the message, if you want Alaska to hire you add that you are fully vaccinated against Covid to your resume.

Read between the lines and learn, this is all information to help you, or I'll just spell it out...
If you want to get hired at Alaska, add that you are vaxxed to your resume. It's a huge deal at Alaska.

The question I have is were you compensated for getting the vaccine on days off? Or, were you pay protected while getting the vaccine(s) and complying with the FAA required waiting period(s)? If neither of the above, then why in the heck would you divulge any information regarding your vaccination status to the company?

This victim mentality is getting old. I never once said Woe is me. I took the merger, base closure, and displacements in stride with a positive attitude. Some people clearly did not. If these “victims” don’t work here, and go to Delta then guess what? They won’t be allowed to show up in an ATL class without being vaccinated. So how’s that any different?

I don’t understand why no one is talking about this. United airlines compensated their pilots 10 hours to get the shot.

AS pilots were told to do it on their own time and dime.

Semantics, but if you got the shot early we were paid 13 hours. It dropped down to as low as 11 (maybe 10, I don’t have the LOA in front of me) if you waited. If you waited too long, you were paid 0.
