Alaska Airlines, working with the Alaska MEC, will hold an Open House for ALPA pilots who fly for Fee for Departure pilots on April 22. Approximately 100 pilots will be invited to participate. Because this is not a first-come, first-served event, it does not matter when you apply during the application window of DATES. We encourage you to take your time to thoroughly complete this application and send your resume.

During the Open House, attendees will participate in 10-minute meet-and-greets with representatives from Alaska Airlines Human Resources. From those meet-and-greets, Alaska will identify candidates for formal interviews on the 23rd and 24th. Candidates will be notified by the end of the day on the 22nd if they will participate in formal interviews.

Please note that only pilots with applications on file with Alaska Airlines are eligible to attend the Open House on April 22. If you are interested and able to attend, please request registration by filling out the form below and attaching a current resume.

Default Key Alaska Question...

I had an AK interview a while back, (did not get the job), be aware of the "the captain says 2 hours out, on the last leg of a 4 day that he's landing at home base no matter what, (minimums are below Cat 2)...the Cat 3 aircraft do it all the time"
What are you going to do?
I must have had the wrong answer because they drilled me on this for 20 minutes.
Good Luck!

Update to a previous post:

ALASKA AIRLINES OPEN HOUSE REGISTRATION INFORMATION
On April 22, Alaska Airlines—working with Alaska's ALPA leadership and Membership Committee—will hold an open house at the Museum of Flight in Seattle for ALPA pilots interested in working for Alaska. During the open house, pilots will participate in informal, one-on-one meetings with Alaska Airlines' recruiting team. A limited number of pilots from the open house will then be invited to participate in formal interviews April 23–24.

Registration for the event will open next week. To be considered for one of the 125 slots available for April's open house, you must first apply to Alaska Airlines during its pilot application window, open now through March 18. Registration for the Alaska Airlines Open House then will be open March 19–25 to give all interested ALPA pilots a chance to submit resumes. Please note that this event is not first-come, first-served. All pilots who register during the open house registration window will be considered for one of the approximately 125 slots or for the open house wait list.

Questions about this event? Contact [email protected].

A few questions for you AS guys:

With the window currently open, is it worth submitting a resume with only the ATP written done (to show interest) or is it not recommended until the practical is complete? (Practical scheduled for June)

Do recs from Horizon FOs carry any weight at AS (IE count as internal for AAG)?

Thanks!
