We have our own “special” way of doing everything
and expect OAL to know about it. Dumb.....
That is one thing that really torques me off. Our FAs EXPECT that other airline employees riding on us either as jumpseaters or ID90s know the quirky way we do things and they get angry when they sit in a bulkhead or emergency exit row.
It happens so infrequently I personally would just let the person sit there. In fact, I would love to see the Captains brief the FAs "hey, if we have any guests from other airlines - either cockpit or cabin jumpseaters - feel free to let them sit in the exit row." Simply to return the favor.
I'd love to see the front row be an exit row as long as we are changing things. No other airline moves everybody out of first class and allows preboarders to sit there. And in an emergency you're just going to have to repeat those people and put an ABP there anyway...
Ok off the soapbox.
