Yes, positively!
Longer answer: There are a lot of fairly senior FO's on both the A330 and 75/767 based in Seattle that will try and bid captain on it. And I won't leave out SLC and LAX guys either. For that matter, I'm sure there are guide a few guys that commute out of Seattle to the 737 in both LAX and SLC. Establishing any base out west will have a positive effect.

There's only one person talking about reducing profit sharing, and he's a troll.
(It's the same guy that says we should get a 14% payraise because of AA pilot talks, but then laments the billions in concessions and says we need a "snap up" to 2004+inflation. Which is it?)
Contact any of your reps. It's not part of the discussion. Don't feed the troll.

I don't know who are referring to but assume it is GSZG?
I for one really appreciate his point of view. Right or wrong, there is absolutely nothing wrong with someone pointing out "worse-case scenarios."
We would be fools to assume that our profit sharing is "off the table." Lets plan for the worse, while hoping for the best.
I would much rather have us go into negotiations looking at every possible scenario then going in to negotiations looking through rose colored glasses.
Some guy are kool-aide drinkers. Some guys are rabble-rousers.
I prefer to hear both points of view and make up my own mind.

Well I know there are at least 20 captains in SLC on the 320/737 that commute from SEA. There are probably quite a few in LAX as well. As long as they don't reduce staffing in SLC and LAX to help "fund" a SEA 737 base, I would think it will be the best thing in a decade for west coast guys. Most likely will result in unbid positions in both LAX and SLC on the narrowbodies based on how junior they have went the last couple bids.

Not so fast my friend! People hate 50 seaters but the new 76 seaters, not so much. Especially the E-170. As Bar has shown us they have better numbers than many mainline fleet airplanes and have wifi and comfy seats.
The 1500 hr/ATP and the majors hiring like gangbusters is what's killing DCI, not C2012. Full disclosure, I voted no on C2012 for the RJ increase reason. I readily admit however, it's turned out quite positive. Just don't attribute the RJ demise to it.

Might finally be some movement west of the Mississippi
