Whatever it takes to keep flying. Horizons cancellations have really hurt the brand in the smaller markets in the Pacific Northwest. I can’t think of a better gift to Southwest in Boise. Alaska is the cause of the issues at Horizon. So whatever harm Horizon has done to hurt the brand is the result ...
Jump to postFrontier vs Frontier Flight is common throughout the US. Why does it matter? I get the rigidity of ATC but everyone knows who Frontier is. "Frontier Air" is Frontier Flying Service, "Frontier Flight" is Frontier Airlines. With F9 not serving Alaska this isn't too big of a deal, ...

Jump to postWhy not simply have OO take over QX operations. I see no future for QX under Alaska Airlines. Air Group doesn't seem to care about it, but there is a contract that they have with QX they can't "simply" get ride of. Not to mention the people who have their career with Horizon. Always amaze...
Jump to postI'm happy, 9E is a much better operation than EV and the employees are better as well. Life just got a lot more difficult for a large group of people through no fault of their own and you're happy? Wow. Go easy on him, and hear me out. I think this is to resolve Expressjets staffing issues on the U...
Jump to postNYPECO wrote:Hang on a second, MKE to MSP? Why such a short flight for an aircraft that size?
It was the airline staff who have no respect, for the law, or their customers, in many of these cases. And they need to be reminded they are not above the law, and cannot have citizens beaten up because the airline screwed up and now they need to get rid of someone to fix it. That is borderline fac...
Jump to postPilot needs to be fired. No excuse for assault but you don't slap someone's phone out of someone's hands. The aircraft is private property and the employees can stop any unwanted photography they want but an airport (usually) is limited-public property meaning if you have business there, you have e...
Jump to postCompass only exists at AA because management needed to get the MQ pilots to play ball which they didn't. It is clear that AA is bringing as much flying as possible to the WO carriers. This makes sense because the money stays in AAG's hands. With the movement in the industry, there won't be that dra...
Jump to postI along with my fellow MQ pilots hope that these planes do come back to MQ. While I don't fly the 175, I support bringing as much flying as possible back to the wholly owned carriers. Trans States, Compass, and Air Wisconsin are/were all replaceable. If you were not paying attention, Envoy is repla...
Jump to postWhat a load of rubbish has been posted in this thread. Anyone who thinks an airline wouldn't hire a pilot simply because he or she has previously worked for Norwegian has completely lost the plot. Get a grip. There is a lot of truth in this thread.

Jump to postThere is no reason QX shouldn't have a flow to AS. 25% of all AS classes filled with QX pilots. It would cut down on labor costs for AAG (turning the most senior and highly paid QX pilots into the the most junior AS pilots, who would have been hired anyways) as well as provide career progression an...
Jump to postI have done both: moved to base and now commute. Living at base at a regional was nice because it allowed me to sit reserve in my apartment and have a car to do things, making reserve life pretty easy. It was also nice since I only had 12 days off. Commuting in the day before on a day off I think wo...
Jump to postThe ERJ doesn't need extremely cold temps to have issues. If it was cold soaked for the night it often had problems when you first turned it on. The gremlins would slowly go away as the plane started to warm up.
