Response #1 in this thread is dated, but I noticed nobody clarified an inaccuracy in the past year. No offense Scoop, but my "correction" might carry even more significance to the combined lists at AA and UAL. DL nonrev priority is not seniority based. It is longevity based. Big differences in some realms ... the tail end guys from 1989 at USAir for instance. Under a DL-like system, they'd trump more than half the seniority list for cabin access, even though I believe they are actual seniority bottom dwellers.

All that aside, I like the DL jumpseat booking system well enough. It's predictable and even-handed. Unlike AA, we have walk-up offline jumpseats. I'd love to see you guys put some emphasis on making that happen at AA. You're always welcome over here, but I never use you guys because of the listing requirement. My commute is too "dynamic" to deal with that.
