I for one think AA, UA, and DL pilots should get priority over the JS over any offline pilot on Republic flights no matter the code share and I think they are working on a way to make that happen. But the same needs to be reciprocated.

Before anybody gets all worked up, word is that active discussion has started back up (stopped when covid hit) and there has been some progress made on both sides. But some RPA pilots are a little bitter that American closed their Miami base and to add insult to injury can now be bumped off their new commute by an offline.
