Continental Pass Privileges Info for UA pilot
UA pilots, I just wanted to give you some information about our Pass Privileges.
1. No unaccompanied buddy pass riders internationally.
2. Buddy pass riders not allowed in First Class.
3. Jumpseaters in First Class, no.
4. SA1 - everybody's favorite issue. Anybody with a supervisor title is given upgraded pass priviliges. Ramp supervisors, gate supervisors, engineers, even catering supervisors. They are boarded ahead of pilots and all other employees regardless of their length of employment.
5. Bonus -gate agents who routinely leave non-revs and jumpseaters behind. They can do so with impunity because they are rarely disciplined.
I know that pass privileges are the least of our concerns. However, this gives you some insight into our great "working together" culture.
