Same at American. I’m JFK based but live in PHX. I like the European and SA flying we do on the 767, plus the trips are more productive than the PHX 757 flying. Once the 767s move to PHL I probably will bid there until I can hold LAX on the 787 or JFK on the 777. Routes and equipment translate to a bigger paycheck.

I'm curious to know what the pilot groups think regarding the upcoming allocation of Airbus equipment to largely north-south routes (LAXSEA, SEAPHX, etc.) while the 739ER fleet is placed on what were once VX transcons like LAXJFK, SFOJFK, etc. Does the change affect whether or not pre-merger AS pilots would prefer to transfer to Airbus equipment, etc?
Not trying to start a war, I'm just genuinely curious to know what the AS and VX pilots think and how it might color your perspectives on the integration.

No one at VX is going to have to leave the AB.

Tilden already said he would not be surprised if there were any Airbus at AK in 5 years (at an investor breakfast). United deferred 65 737-700s. Maybe AK picks those up and UAL gets those Airbus.
It would be ashamed to have to repaint all the AK 737s to remove the "Proudly all Boeing" from the planes.

There will be no new 737-700’s at Alaska. Anyone that knows anything knows that you can’t make money with it. The Airbus leave, some 737’s come. Fewer of course because they are bigger and retirement/attrition keep staffing at the proper level....all “long, thin route” flying will be handled by the EMB 195-E2 operated by our partners Skywest/Horizon. All the while we will continue to “grow”....
