Reading the linked press release at the start of the thread, it seems obvious that it should be branded as Alaska. All other SF Giants promotions mentioned for next year in that release specifically mention Alaska, they are naming a level of the stadium the "Alaska Airlines Club Level," e...

Jump to postSomewhat related to your question there was an article a few years ago about the iPhone and how it's shipped worldwide and it said that a FedEx 777F can hold about 450,000 iPhones. Pretty impressive. Here is the full article if you're interested: <a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2013-...

Jump to postThe short answer is no, Alaska isn't ditching the Eskimo, nor should they necessarily, but sorry guys, Alaska's look is dated. Why? The Eskimo was designed in the early 70's.

Jump to postThis isn't just an A320 issue. It's common sense. You only have to search for a leaking bottle so many times before you start asking people to place liquids on the floor.

Jump to postWhat is your source for the information? How could anyone know that they will not place orders for airplanes in the next 10 years?

Jump to postOh and no pictures but the other three choices were selected in this order:
Blue Thunderbirrd
Golden Nugget
Red Thunderbird
My favorite was blue, which came in 2nd.
I don't know why they said they couldn't do bare metal, but they said if this design were chosen it would be paint.
I really hope they reconsider, because bare metal would look *really* sharp.
