Do you still fax your bids in?

You don’t need 30 years, a friend with 27 helps and so does P2P pickups! 😉

👍! Glad you are happy at DA, that is a great spot. Now comparing DA to VX, seems a little like maybe you drank the tea in SFO🤔… My hope would be every pilot that leaves Alaska or any company, would be much happier at their new job. There is a reason after all that you left, the great part is you actually acted on all that unhappiness, and you made a change that bettered your life!

Why would it come this month?.. I may have missed a date or timeline.

You seem to be so proud of that! It is literally one of the dumbest things that I have seen. You embody the characters who made this status quo at AS, pathetic🤦‍♀️.

Yes. The last email in May said a decision would be coming in 2 months. And that no base would open or close prior to Q3 2022.
