AS Recalls?

[wscrj]

Yeah...that's pretty much the impression I got as well.

Wouldn't it be great to see 90 junior SEA CA's bid SEA FO?

 

[Old School 737]

Bid is canceled and a new one is coming soon with less reductions out of SEA and a smaller PDX base.

 

[wscrj]

Nevermind...I was wrong.

 

[flythere]

anyword on recalls yet?

 

[QCappy]

Apparently not going to happen for now. As we saw from this recent PDX bid, things can change at any time.

Cancún, Long Beach service reduced

Flights redeployed to Bay Area-Hawaii,
Portland-Burbank and PDX-Ontario
February 9 , 2010
Alaska Airlines is discontinuing service between Cancún and Los Angeles, effective June 6, and will serve Mexico’s Caribbean resort destination seasonally only from Seattle. After June 6, daily service between Seattle and Cancún will resume Nov. 7.

In a related schedule change, two daily Portland-Long Beach flights are being eliminated, effective April 20. Passengers will still be able to fly between the two cities via Seattle on two daily Horizon roundtrips to Long Beach.

The Long Beach schedule reductions are being re-deployed as an additional daily roundtrip each between Portland and Burbank and Portland and Ontario, starting June 6. The summer schedule is still being finalized.

“We continue to re-allocate capacity to fortify our network,” said Andrew Harrison, vice president of planning and revenue management. “Discontinuing Long Beach will strengthen remaining service between Southern California and Portland while Cancún capacity has been re-deployed to help support our new Hawaii service from the Bay Area.”

The Cancún flights will be pulled from the reservations system on Feb. 14 while Long Beach will be pulled on Feb. 21. Station managers in Cancún and Long Beach have been advised of the service cuts.

You can thank the 87% who gave corporate Alaska the green light to outsource Alaska pilots jobs, build Horizon until it is equal in size, give away SEA Etops, and turn what was once a good job into a mediocre, low paying, dreary, depressing grind..............when you guys finally figure that out you will thank them for terminating(whoops)furloughing you......Time to move on fellas.......those jobs are leavin' and they aint comin' back........

The only outsourcing I see going on is pilots padding their lines up 90 hours, VSA'rs and the over 60'ers.

Horizon has pilots on furlough..

I know 106 pilots who would take your job if its that bad. Maybe you should move on.. Just saying.. Your not over 60 to boot are you Tico.
Sure, I agree though the contract could have been better...
Perspective...
Respect,

Those two routes were two of the worst yeilding routes in the system, therefore they were cut. I think they have a clue. I would rather they cut routes that don't make money than bleed money on routes to make us feel good. There are more route changes coming. The new norm will be constantly shifting routes as demand/yield evolve. Get used to the new reality.

Ding, ding, ding, weeee have a winner. You're too smart to be a pilot. I'm guessing you already have a back up career. Like you said, when Etops goes those jobs aint gunna come back. With an aquisition on the horizon it's a mighty slippery slope.
