unfortunately, AE pilots do not control or have a say in the matter. It is directed by AA and APA. If APA wants unlimited seats on all airlines, all they have to do is get reciprocal unlimited on the other airline. AE is lucky not to get thrown of AA planes. AA wont give it unless what they give is equal to what they get. Thats is AA and APA can only push it, AE as I said is lucky we get our jumpseat priority before AA pilots, because at one time our guys were left behind while AA pilots took our jumpseat.
