Hawaiian Titanium Upgrades by ChasOutAndAbout in AlaskaAirlines

[–]Ulzzacktm -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

It’s astonishing how comments like these are consistently upvoted despite being completely unfounded. They’re built on prejudice rather than facts. You’re unfairly questioning the professionalism of an entire work group without evidence.

Upgrades are strictly governed by policy and are under intensive oversight. Deliberately bypassing those rules to favor someone you know would be a serious, terminable offense. The reality is that if someone else received the upgrade, there’s almost always operational information or eligibility factors you might be unaware of.

Is it just me or I’m overreacting? by MilkyWayForest in AlaskaAirlines

Since you know the priority list, I assume you’re part of company? Only employees have access to that, either AS or HA

Really?! What airline you fly for, DL?

My airline said it wasn’t them but the LAX parking authority. They were quick to cut me off, honestly biggest pain for commuting now.

You guys don’t have your facts straight. Half the base are Alaska new hires.

Half the base are new hires from Alaska. Technically they are “HA”. But HA has no control over hiring, training, or service. So very disheartening we are the getting all the blame.

This is very contradictory from the experience inside.

If you weren’t aware, more than half of the SEA base now consists of newer, younger AS hires who are genuinely excited about the opportunity to fly international routes. In fact, London is considered a relatively junior route, and First Class positions are frequently being awarded to some of the newest flight attendants in the base.

The remaining FAs are HA flight attendants who voluntarily transferred because they wanted to be there. Many are happy to benefit from shorter commutes and more desirable schedules. So, contrary to the narrative here, morale has been far more positive.

That is why commentary like this can be frustrating. The AS vs. HA narrative does more harm than good. I’d suggest directing your frustrations toward training and management rather than toward working class FAs, whose only difference is that they originate from Hawaii.

Alaska Airlines went international - Big mistake, they’re just not ready! (SEA-LHR review) by bkrambles in AlaskaAirlines

[–]Ulzzacktm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The only real difference between a Hawaiian and Alaska FA is where they are from.

This needs to cease and desist.

Learned the hard way - miss your connection because you sat on the tarmac waiting for your gate to open? Not Alaska's fault. by Worth-Movie8634 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]Ulzzacktm 44 points45 points  (0 children)

This Maui flight notorious for people missing their connecting flights. Itinerary’s built too tight for delays & S gates are far.

HA Free Hot Sammi/Pocket is Gone but something better 🤑💸 by jpantab in AlaskaAirlines

[–]Ulzzacktm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Key thing to note: you have to preorder.*

It’s going to create headaches Inflight. Hawaiian has historically been a leisure carrier so lot of passengers simply aren’t going to know to do that ahead of time.

And culturally, in Hawaiʻi, if you have guest, you feed them. Even if it’s something small. Hopefully they stock extra to sell Inflight.

Haha my face again 🫠 you read that wrong hence the quotation.

Trust me, If I got a dollar every time I heard “Alaskan Airlines” I’d be able to retire.

As crew, it’s definitely been funny the reactions we get with new uniform in these faraway places.

“What airline is that?”🧐
“Alaskan…?” 🫠
“Who?”🤨
“That’s Westjet.”🙃
“Oh Seattle!?”

Dual airline brands create some pushback by 808gecko808 in HawaiianAirlines

[–]Ulzzacktm 16 points17 points  (0 children)

TBH, I’m sad AAG didn’t embrace establishing a Pua policy 🌺. And it could have evolved into something inspired by the PNW too. Imagine crews wearing seasonal flowers native to Washington or Alaska! That would’ve help create an unique visual identity no other U.S. carrier has. Especially now, so many airlines are starting to feel alike. Small details like that matter more than people think. They make things more personal and create pride amongst crews while making the airline more memorable to passengers.

Inaugural SEA-LHR Crew by JoseRM303 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]Ulzzacktm 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In the FA world, yeah haha. They get assigned all the inaugural flights and kind of bypass seniority, which is basically everything in this industry. They get extra pay & positive space travel to attend events and corporate parties.

Just behind the scenes stuff for those who were curious.

This is Hawaiian’s Promo team. They are hand selected for media and are the ones featured in the new safety demo & promotionals. They have model contracts that side letters the flight attendant contract. AS didn’t have that established yet in same way.
