This is **official** word from your union or airlines?
I'm not even an airline guy and I know how bad jump-seat tit-for-tat is, and as said above - no one wins and people just trying to get to/from work are left holding the bags.
Before this gets into rumor mill mud-slinging, can you supply some sort of factual data to support this contention - AA's and/or your airline's position stated above?
