That is a load of crap and you know it. I, and several of my coworkers, have pushed and pushed to get this restriction removed. I personally know our jumpseat chairman and work with him on these types of issues now that I am involved at the union leadership.
We are at the whim and mercy of management in regards to this issue. It is definitely NOT for lack of trying. Most if not all of our pilots would love to have unlimited for all airlines. You can bet that they would only give us unlimited j/s in exchange for a major work concession now that we are in Sec 6. In the meantime, all we can do is continue pushing for reciprocity.... but I don't see us accepting major concessions in exchange for it.
