Heard back from one of our reps. quote, "this WILL be fixed with our new JCBA."

How long will it take to get a new JCBA? good question. Merger should be approved by Sept, then the work on the JCBA begins.

Once it's done, we can expect the new AA to have a very friendly industry-standard j/s policy, a la USAir.

My apologies for the past/current AA philosophy. I'm not surprised if our guys get denied/restricted based on this...
