MEM to ANC commute on Fedex
Opinions on a NWA guy commuting on Fedex from MEM to ANC? I think we have a lot of commuters that do that route, but not sure if it possible or not.
Thanks! |
Not just from MEM, but I'm wondering how hard of a commute is it PERIOD into and out of ANC? Just a heads up, but about 80 more ANC commuters (UPS MD-11 & 747-400 crews) are headed that way in 2007.
How many pilots does Fedex have based in ANC anyway? |

We need to welcome the NWA pilots in a big way... I JS on them all the time. But looking at the availability - the jump seats are often full, and the only time from MEM to ANC is the all nighter.

World fllies out of Atlanta to Anchorage (freight) on a nearly daily basis although I doubt that will be of any use to FedEx or NW pilots. UPS might be able to utilize those seats though.

It may be of interest to some........According to the folks that put out bids for Brown, there are only around 30 pilots with an ANC address. There will be a huge problem if guys want to JS there if they bid the MD or Whale. There aren't enough seats. Forget FedEx, they have their seats and then there are the UPS ones which will fill up really quickly. It'll be a stinkin' mess.
