Sky,
If Alaska's HR could read your posts on how bad you want to work at Alaska I bet they would offer you a job on the spot.
I too wore the Alaska rose colored glasses. 4 years in the bush and I also worked at QX. Believe me, the honeymoon doesn't last long. I wouldn't beat yourself up. My advice: Get on with Aloha, and after the merger you can bid up to Seattle.

SkyHigh, I'm sure this has been asked and answered, but my legendary memory is failing me today. Did you recently apply at AS? If so, did they call you in? If HR called you tomorrow, would you go?
Again, I apologize if this ground has been gone over. As you know, I too am in SEA and count an AS MD80 captain as a friend, so I am very interested in your (and everyone else on APC) professional progress, particularly when it comes to Alaska.

This is starting to sound like someone standing on a bridge yelling, " stand back or I'll jump!" Either jump or step away.

Either jump or step away.What I meant by that statement was that I don't have access to the inside routes to apply. My avenue of application lies at the front door with everyone else. I don't have a silver bullet.
