I will stand corrected I was unaware that it was not the AA MEC that had the jump seat rule in place but rather AA management. With that being said it is still the point that it is not reciprocal when we are restricted to one rider regardless of load. With regionals doing more than 40% of the nations domestic flying your pilots depend on us as much as our pilots depend on them to get home. I am sure there are AA pilots that live in areas that are serviced solely by XJ, 9E, 9L. AA management should recognize this as Delta, South West, United, US Air, and numerous other power house majors have.
