However with at the end of the US Airways days we, including family, traveled as SD2P or in other words the same as mainline parents (D2P today). I think that was fair.

However, post merger we are AAC which is above D3 but below D2P. Also:

-No access to NRTP or Jetaway

-Must list for American Flights through MyID Travel, which is about the most piece of garbage website in the world.

-Pay $1.58 PER SEGMENT to list on that site. PHL-CLT-DFW? $1.58 x 2 please. We already pay $75 per year + $50 per dependent to have travel benefits with American so that cost per segment is an insult.

And the best for last: NO ONLINE CHECK IN!!! First come first first serve 24hrs prior right? Better go to the airport the day before you vacation to checked in.

At your vacation destination and trying to get home? Better get there early and wait in line behind all the pax at the counter that have to check their 13 58lb bags for a family of 4 so that you and your family can get check in.

Oh...and good luck trying to get an agent in FRA, CDG, etc. to understand that an AAC is an actual non-rev priority code. They will argue that you are on a ZED and will list you as such putting you behind everyone including D3's.

Damn skippy we are ****ed off PilotJ3.

The Irony? If you need a ZED we can no longer use MyId Travel for that now. Have to get a paper ZED from the company at least 5 days prior.
Who do you work for? AA doesn't even have to offer non rev benefits to contract airlines, its all about what your company negotiates.
