After reading some of your guys comments on FI, I have no desire to ever be a part of SWA...

Slowly joining the ranks of every other disgruntled pilot group...



We were all one happy family, TILL that other group got here. I am all for getting another REAL group and seeing how we can screw the trannies more.
 
So, he's just a disgruntled wanna be that couldn't get hired or acquired?

That's pretty funny.

More than anything it's a reminder that some of us have real skin in this game and others don't and for some reason have nothing better to do than post $mack, stir the pot and try to whip up emotions with internet BS.
 
That's funny. Just jump seated on Allegiant and as we pushed back saw 2 Alaska, 1 American, 1 United and 2 WestJet at their gates. Guess what, all 737's.

Right next to our UAL 757's/767's and 777's that make up the majority of our Hawaii flights. 737's are just fillers in the schedule.

You still do them. Quite a bit actually

7 Ual flights LAX-SFO
4 use 737's

1 of 5 737 on the sfo-HNL route

2 of 3 sfo-ogg= 737
2 of 4 lax-ogg

No 737's on your 2 lax-koa flights, but 1 of 2 sfo-koa use a 73

I don't have all night, but it Seems like it's more than just filler from the west coast man
 
Well, economics intersects at some point-
Like all those small communities that wanted jets and used to have 5 turboprops a day linking them- now have little to no service
Seems like people may not like 737 service transcon or to Hawaii compared to a widebody - but it doesn't mean it won't work.

I've listened to more than one passenger bemoan why we don't have 777's going from LAX-SFO
 
I don't know which of those ideas I hate worse-
Another acquisition of a super young carrier with captains younger than me- who has routes where we want to grow-
Or the merger with Alaska that will have to be a mere combination of strong carriers

At least Alaska guys aren't so young -
Piss on both those ideas
If another is announced- the junior FOs will not be remotely so quiet as last time-Face it- senior FOs got upgrades out of air tran at THE EXPENSE of SWA junior FOs.
 
Yuk. I'm disappointed in us. Good thing they are only shorter flights.

You do understand that the passenger cabins are the same on the 75 and 73, correct?
