Also, a new jumpseat agreement. But I thought the 744 seats were not up to standard for company travel? Has this now changed?
"747-400 Priority 3 Jumpseat Agreement
In addition to the new ANC agreement, IPA President Bob Miller and the EB met with UPS this week to seek an equitable agreement on the Jumpseat issues between the 747-400 and classic 747 aircraft. System Chief Pilot J Barnes addresses this concern in today's UPS Chief Pilot Hotline, "There have been some questions on the Company's policy regarding scheduling of jumpseats on the B747-400 aircraft. To clarify this, it is our policy to only utilize the jumpseats in the passenger section of the aircraft."
Miller emphasizes to crewmembers, "The Company has committed they will place no P3s in the flight deck jumpseats. The issue of the Jumpseat Matrix for the 747-400 is separate and will be handled by the Scheduling Arbitration Review Team (SART) for resolution.”
