I think there is a lot of emotion in the responses here. Pilots don't see the other companys managers so their emotion is directed at the only people they see that represent said company, the pilots. I see it on here a lot. RAh taking midwest flying gojets etc. I have been a CA for the last 7 years and I can honestly tell you I have never denied a jumpseat to another pilot. When you meet a pilot from any airline in person face to face, I don't think there is any difference between the two of you. Both of you want to do this job make as much money as possibe and have a good quality of life. This industry is pure luck whether you can get through unruffled. We do this because we love to fly. I am guilty of getting emotional on here and saying things on the board. I think we all are. Sometimes it is hard not to. In a perfect world we would all be at one company with one list and all of a stake in our place of business. We were all student pilots once. Lets remember our roots be happy we have a job we love doing, and get home to our wives and families and let all this stupid bickering stop. Fly safe.
