Also with your pilot scenario, that is only on mainline flights, not on Comair, Compass or Mesaba. You fly DOH on all three. So even on Mesaba you go on as DOH at the same priority as a Mesaba pilot with DOH.
I am just concerned with the Mainline flights, because that is where we have have been hurt the most priority wise. So if I'm looking at a flight that goes through ATL or JFK, I can't even look at the list to see if it's worth going to the airport or not.
