ANC

With the new bid out, what’s the expectation for how long to hold ANC for a new hire?

Airbus bases are SFO and LAX.

Not sure when the window will be open again, but if I had to guess I’d say relatively soon. Probably depends on COVID and what they predict their staffing needs will be in the near future.

This is just a guess, but I would expect to hold ANC out of training, or on the first bid after training.

Really? Do you think the ANC base will be growing?

Would there be an advantage/disadvantage to holding a particular fleet in LAX? Basically looking to establish whether or not there is an appreciable difference in QOL between the Bus and the 737. Does one fly more redeyes than the other? Is the trip mix better on the Boeing? Any info is much appreciated.

While they are adding Airbus now, the long term plan is to close Bus SFO, open Boeing SFO, and consolidate the Bus base to a single one at LAX. Over time that will shrink (reduce). For the time being, the Bus fleet is "growing" but it will reduce again after next year's Summer/Fall.

I see both Airbus CA and FO going junior. It's basically a dying fleet, with the exception of present time to Sept 1, 2021. IMO if you want LAX I'd bid LA Boeing as #1 then LA Airbus as #2.
