Hey 10-11 years to hold short call in Seattle is pretty good compared to what I’m thinking this next bid will show.
20 years to hold PDX captain? If we all join together in unity it could happen!

Please stop complaining. You barely did any time at a 121 regional and upgraded sub 5 yrs at a legacy airline.

Junior SEA short call captain for July is 7 years. But go on and keep being delusional.

Yeah and best case, in 3 years those same people will still be on short call. Or pushed down to the circadian flips of long call convertible reserve by senior FOs. That's what I'm saying.

There’s a reason a 2018 hire CA upgraded in 2023, while there were 700 FOs above him who skipped that upgrade slot.

And a lot of them are now very interested in the upgrade. That's why it's going to be very senior, for a long time.

Welcome to the airline industry. Sub 3-5 yr CAs were the exception, not the norm.

Exactly. Probably a 15-20 year wait to hold captain in PDX.

I'm already a PDX CA. Not officially, but I bought the hat and walk around the airport. Great QOL

I had a captain jacket for a little while and I’ve been to PDX. That counts right?

On a serious note, I got into a group chat of SFO commuters to help coordinate commute legs, hotel deals, etc. There are some…. Special folks in there. Mad that the 78 base is…going to the airline that has 78s. “IM VOTING NO” despite the fact that there literally does not exist a TA. IM VOTING NO IF THERE ARE HATS

I just want to know what journalist thinks it’s a good idea to use a pilot forum with unverified users as a good news source.

Hawaiian Pilots Call Out Alaska as Integration Turmoil Grows
Hawaiian and Alaska pilots are now clashing over who will fly future Hawaii routes. What’s unfolding behind the scenes could reshape crews, aircraft, and the travel experience itself.

Based on their history with Eskimo it’s pretty trash all the time.

You would totally call these idiots "Journalists". Jeff and Rob are moron bloggers who managed to get a lot of eyeballs on their blog during Covid when Hawaii just about shut down. Their "articles" are poorly researched and written, and very often blatantly wrong (and they never retract or publish corrections).
when the ad to paragraph ratio is 1:1 I know I’m in for a well researched piece
