I have no sense of entitlement about PSC whatsoever. I’m talking about a hypothetical situation in which PSC were negotiated into the PWA. Utilizing a provision of the PWA isn’t ‘entitlement.’
I’ve never said I’m entitled to a seat, just like nonrevvers are not entitled to a seat. If PSC is a provision in the PWA, then booking a seat would simply be exercising a provision of the PWA, same as the nonrevver.
I always book the JS instead of listing as a nonrev, so more nonrevs can make it on. Also, in your hypothetical scenario (which is false), that employee could list for the JS since it would be open.
When PSC was a thing, it was incredibly easy to book the JS; almost all of them were open. That’s almost a guaranteed seat, it’s far better than rolling the dice with nonrev.
It is a guaranteed seat to work. If you are bumped by a check airman or the FAA you will be given positive space in the back.
