I'm just going off of the Compass Points email sent a couple of days ago and what MW said in his update section. I'm not making it up.
Where are you getting your info? Are you a flight attendant?

FO has enough work to do, in addition to keeping me out of trouble. He shouldn't be hauling bags.

yeah I agree. the only good thing is that dispatch can send our numbers to the printer, that is about it.
It's a shame how cheap they went on these planes. Going to be exciting stowing our bags in the cargo bin. Also going to be nice getting to show up to the airport earlier, just to make it to the remote terminal in LAX.
I'm going to see how long I can make it without flying any of these AA pairings. I'm guessing MSP based pilots won't have to though anyway. Too bad that previous poster's 'rumor' is not true. Wish this flying was never coming our way. Hopefully Envoy guys and gals can have a bone thrown their way soon.

+1, on all. As an ex-rampie, if you pack it, you carry it.

My understanding is that Republic crews both on AA/US E170 flying keep roller bags in designated overhead bin spots in the cabin. They actually have specific CA/FO/FAA-A/B locations for weight and balance purposes.
