On this you and I are in agreement. Tim and his leadership committee pushed a lot of the early supporters away. Unfortunately for DPA the leadership made it easy for ALPA to cast them as a bunch angry disgruntled people.

I will add this, you may not like the ALPA PAC, but we have to have a presence in DC and CAPA is not the answer at least not in its present form.

My intel says LAX is a done deal. My wager is a case of Ballast Point IPA.

Does anyone know how long a "new category" is considered new for (for the purposes of seat lock)? I could not find it in the PWA, I know that I saw it somewhere just not sure where. I was thinking it was either 60 or 90 days. I missed the SEA 73 by one new hire class last time.

Any gouge on when the next AE is dropping?

Also, for if the puppy does come out west soon. (Particularly to LAX)
- It's a short course for current 88 guys? 5 ish days?
- And does that then incur the full 2 year seat lock, or is it a 9 month one like the 7ER to 765 is?

Thanks in advance!

flyallnite, where does it show SEA>PHX on 717, and when? Are you just looking at the route page where you can pull up flights and see the equip or what?
Thanks!

heard the exact same thing... nothing about the 777 though, even though it looks to continue with 3 departures/day for at least the rest of the year
