Yes. I don’t fly much. 🙄
were talking about Alaska here. Please point out where the FA’s are picketing and please provide the latest press release about the FA’s being in negotiations. It doesn’t happen on Alaska the way you claim. There may be a one off here and there. The majority of flights get the service they’re scheduled for. Shorter flights often don’t have scheduled service, or it’s just water. That’s not the flight attendants fault. But yes, I’ll take the word of someone who watches from the sidelines.
