Personally, I have always given up my seat and taken a cabin jumpseat to get another pilot on board (you know, never leave a pilot behind). I won't anymore. What has been your experience lately?
Unfortunately this is par for the course for most of the DAL commuters I've seen. I'm thankful that I commute on our own metal, and sad to say I've had more than my share of DAL guys making comments to our gate agents and crew trying to get a seat.
