It comes in four waves, primary, secondary, tertiary, and whatever the word is for #4. They'll publish the available weeks for the first bid, I think, in January. Some of the other guys will know for sure. Then you'll bid that round. Then a month or so later, they'll do the next round, etc, etc. You can do vacation moves after you've received your vacation bids. I think that's how it works. I just react to the messages on I Crew.

I'm with buzzpat on this one
The Alska JV is a wholesale giveaway of scope.
It's completely different from the Airfrance or even the Virgin Australia JV.
How many people do you really think buy a ticket on Alaska Air to fly to Tokyo or Sydney?
What if we signed off on this:
"DAL doesn't want to dilute the market and JetBlue will cover North/South routes from JFK" how would that fly?
The worst part is our own union signed off on this Alaska JV.
Cheers

And maybe I'm naive, but I dont buy the whole "there is a lot more market share on the east coast"......I say BS. You cant tell me there is not a market on the west coast.
I know it's anyone's guess but is this Delta's way of slowly letting go of the west coast? If it is, it is a horrible mistake in my opinion.
