They just told QX that now no Q400s will be leaving.
They're sucking it up and paying for D checks. So all the new Embraers will be new flying, most likely starting out out with increased frequency to current AAG cities. Planning on receiving 13 next year, from Apr~Dec, with one per month after that....

We do have a Scope section. Scope pertains to more than just CPA flying. We have merger protections and a no furlough clause.. and some other stuff. Our section one is obviously lacking Seat/weight outsourcing limits that we desperately need to fix.

This scope thing, trying to wrap my head around it (as an outsider). Scope would prevent AAG from flying RJs on traditionally Alaska Airlines routes? Basically preventing a creep of services to low cost carriers under the same colors as Alaska Airlines? What other sorts of things would having a scope clause protect against?

How times are changing! Less than 1 year upgrade on the mad dog out of JFK! $200+/hour at year two in the left seat is pretty tempting, IF you can get hired at Delta. I suppose if you love living in Gig Harbor and don't mind making less than $100/hour until year three, Alaska may just suit you right. Die hards and rejects......

I wouldn't call them rejects. It's mathmatically harder to get hired at Alaska than United and Delta. I know 10 guys who had AS as their #1 choice and after years of doing the job fair game gave up and went to UA and DL.
On another note what was with all the cancelations at SEA yesterday? The winds peaked around 35 knots right down the runway. Not much of a storm and no one else cancelled.
