It isn't senority based like many other carriers. If you check in before a AA employee then you are ahead of them on the standby list. Only jumpseats are senority based. This applies to Eagle and mainline.
You forgot to mention that you have to PAY until you get the 5yr mark.(even for yourself).With Mainline cutting capacity, good luck getting on.
