We have some guys interviewing. Locals first from what I understand and you should have a inside reference.

Good luck

There is no ANC flight anymore. Alaska flies that route now.

Thanks, me neither. Good Luck though! Let us know how it turns out and I'll do the same.

How are the trips? 717s mostly day trips, and 767s mostly west coast 2 days? What is the senority of the junior Seattle FO? Thanks for the replies.

717s are all interisland day trips that start/end in hnl.
767s are mostly west coast 2 and 3 day trips. samoa/tahiti are turns. manila 2-3 days. sydney 4-5 days.
junior seattle is 2000 hire.

Hawaiian is probably the most nepotistic airline out there, and they heavily favor locals/Hawaiians. Most of the Caucasian pilots there also seem to have roots in Hawaii. They probably aren't too interested in someone wanting to commute from Dallas. Jumpseating/nonreving is hard enough once a year for vacation on a flexible schedule, do you really think that's a good idea on a regular basis?

There are also a ton of Aloha and JALways guys that are probably being given first crack at the interviews, just a guess.
