Nope. And if they did I would still say its weak. How many times has anyone commuting had their commute stretched out to 2-3X its normal length because of a missed jumpseat or some other crap(ie, gate agent). Honestly, its part of the industry either accept it or find another job where you don't have to hop on a plane to get home.
And yes its a free market and some other SJS kid will take your place. These are the facts. Enjoy the industry you voluntarily joined!
Bottom line...I delay my flight to get you on.
You delay your flight to get me on.
This industry is only tolerable if we help each other out.
These are the facts. Still not a free market. Nice try though.
You're clearly not a commuter.
BTW, I don't have SJS...I fly the mightiest Beech on the planet. Not a whole lot of people lining up for that.
