Really? Tell us...where on the priority list do Skywest pilots fall when attempting to board on United, Delta, Alaska, or American?
Because I can tell you how it works at Envoy, PSA, and PDT. EQUAL boarding priority on AA. We and our families are no different and if we checked in first (up to 24 hours prior) we can leave mainline AA pilots/employees at the gate.
Then after all AA/Envoy employees board guys like you who work for Skywest and other airlines get their turn...if there are any seats left.
You honestly think whatever it is you have at Skywest can beat that? Variety doesn't mean anything when you are at the bottom of a 80 person Standby list.
