This is a UNICAL IT problem that highlites the recent PSS changeover "success". Placing blame or responsibility on individual pass riders is as misplaced as trying to start a jumpseat war.
The same way that I knew that I was getting aced by a 2011 hire Express employee. I looked at the codes when I listed and asked.
I fully agree that this is a UNICAL problem, and not the responsibility of Express employees. Perhaps we should remind the UAX pilots the same next time there is a glitch in the system that goofs up their jumpseat priority.
Here's the rub. I'm PRAYING that I don't make it to work soon because I get left behind while a bunch of United Express employees waltz on to our jets. It would be SOOO sweet to call the Chief Pilot and explain why I didn't make my trip, followed by a grievance to make sure I was paid for it due to it being a UAL induced failure. HOWEVER, when I don't make it home to my family on one of my 9-10 nights at home a month for the same reason, my sense of humor dims considerably.
