Delta vs. Alaska

Inshallah!

I like how that’s become a joke for the common American.

 

[Skåning]

Well religion is a joke so...par for the course?

My imaginary friend/sky god is better than yours!

Not to burst the bubble but of all the legacy airlines, Delta is the least likely to get any approval for buying Alaska. Waay too much overlap.

You guys are getting bought by American. Except Envoy flows over Alaska pilots. Right @Dacuj

Can an airline take a loan on a loan to purchase another airline?

AA is already 40 billion in debt, what's a few more?

Isn't that what the US government thinks?

 

[Malko]

It's also a Delta hub, many on that route don't live in MSP.

Dont be talking about Minny up in here....

 

[Malko]

Don’t worry, even on short layovers in MSP we make sure to either freeze you or get you 23 mosquito bites from no where!

Airbus or 73?

SEA is 737 base only

737 - ANC, SEA, PDX, LAX

320 - SFO, LAX

Crazy I could have held my old position on this bid, LA 320 CA. Moot point because I’d be 4th from bottom and would be displaced again back to Boeing. Why go through all that training over and over.

That Seattle? At AA that would be DFW

Plot twist, the 70 in your post actually refers to wind speed today!

Yup. The HQ base. Like ATL for Delta, it tends to have characters. I assume the same for DFW at AA?

I suppose so. The main difference is compared to airways bases people in dfw wear headsets. And FO’s don’t make takeoff briefings the captain does it for us. And we don’t ever speak on the PA whereas at airways the pilot non flying does them.
I don’t care either way.

Sounds like typical merger of two very different cultures. It’s the same story over here, oil and water.
