We do have people commuting from SMF, it's doable on reserve

Cool, I was hoping between Alaska, Horizon, and SWA I could make it work.

The last offer that was turned down had FO signing bonuses up to $25k + tuition reimbursement, we'll see what happens to that.

I'm hoping this new deal will make Horizon a destination spot once again for new pilots, and for the first time in years I'll be able to start recommending this place.

What does a three year captain make? Thanks.

Drive it if you're going to MFR. 4:15, easy drive, nothing past Woodland. Take PM reserve and you can drive it day of leaving maybe 730a. If you don't fly, you'll have your car and can enjoy the local area. PM me if you want the full rundown. I did it until I got PDX, THEN SWA will be your best friend.

Single days of reserve, take your golf clubs and camp out in Weed!

Horizon commute

Ok guys, yet another question. I appreciate all the willingness to get my past questions answered. I have a condo in BLI. I know its just a 2 hour drive to SEA, but if one was so inclined is it easy to hop on a Q and jump seat back and forth?

Any rumors on Anchorage flying? I currently live in Anchorage and fly for Compass out of Seattle and am considering making the jump to Horizon. I have been at Compass for a year and the lack of movement is absolutely demoralizing.
