UALALPA has asked us not to deny jumpseats, even to SWest. I will do as they ask but I will be sending JS info to UALALPA and Flight Ops as requested. My guess is they are cross referencing names to see if cAPTAINS that deny jseats are using them on U.
Way above my paygrade. I will not weaponize the jumpseat (unless you are a SCAB).
My observation over 25 years is pilots may be fractured a lot of the time but the wagons tend to circle when the attack comes from within on closely guarded privileges like the JS.
My personal opinion is it’s very short-sighted to think there won’t be consequences of some sort for the participants. It also seems short sighted to jump on a wagon apparently driven by pilots who have no aspirations to leave SWest.
Maybe I’m missing something. In any case, weaponizing the JS was a huge tactical failure IMHO.
