Did you just say something positive? Who hijacked Domino’s account?

FWIW, your doom and gloom has never frustrated me and I’ve been lurking here for a few years now. Your glass is just half empty. Haters gonna hate.

Regarding travel benefits… are travel companions in lieu of spouse allowed for Alaska benefits, or only spouse/DP?

You won't have a problem getting LA as a base within a couple of months if you're on the ERJ (and there is zero reason not to choose the ERJ).

This used to not be true. CRJ had significantly better base picks and upgrade times but now, having flown both, and how fast IOE times are on the ERJ , you are 100% correct.

PHX is senior at Mesa. He’ll be able to hold it or a SoCal base quicker at SkyWest.
