With 50% of the AS pax going to ATL and MSP and up to 35% everywhere else, we can't afford not to help them out, amirite?

So I should for some reason want to exchange DTW-Haneda for SEA-Haneda?

If I'm not mistaken, if it's out of DTW then we do (along with our friends in their jumbo RJs) the feed but if it's out of SEA then Alaska does the feed since SEA is not per the PWA a hub. Right?

So...

I hope we've learned to ask for the cash up front.

The new reserve bucket system with short call bucket system added to the mix:



I still think there is something inherently wrong with a system that can get a guy to bucket 3 and still have that pilot be #1 for SC and go right back out on another trip with other pilots sitting in bucket 1 with 0 flight hours. And I'm not talking about a guy sitting at 100% in category vs someone sitting 50% in category, I'm talking about 80% in category vs someone at 75% both in the weekends off crowd.

But I know the standard line, the new reserve system was exactly designed to bring seniority back to the reserve system. The system operates like the old system. It is what senior pilots demanded and we acted accordingly.

I got the emails.

I agree FTB. We could balance this a little better so that senior guys on reserve do some work.
