Yes I’m aware of the PS rule, that’s true for any airline, but it’s easy to spot 9E on the standby list and see whose getting on the flight as a standby passenger that’s in pilot clothes, you guys and gals wear name tags. I understand things have gone south in a particular upper-Midwest domicile and there are a lot of commuters to a large domicile on the east coast...but those flights are always full and leaving nonrevs behind...I’m always in the jumpseat to allow others to get on, I’d just like to see others be conscious of that as well
