Is there a reason why you can’t list D6? my travel ID won’t let you?

Correct. It does recognize that flight as an eligible listing for pilot commuting. Cant do it on any AA branded flight. So pretty much we are screwed. AA management is enjoying it though, they hate us anyway.

I think at others it is s3 on own metal and in seniority order with all other delta employees and s3c off metal.

I’m operating a flight on my go home leg for Eagle, and wouldn’t you know it, flights full with a Delta jumpseater and an American jumpseater. What’s being honored now is American first then obviously the Delta pilot is oal and doesn’t get on. I ask the American JSer where they are operating and wouldn’t you know it, s/he is operating the flight I’m trying to jumpseat home on. Great, until I get to the gate and a Delta pilot is trying to commute home on the same flight and has checked in before me. Now I’m stuck at the airport because you won’t give me/us priority on your flights.
We are not asking to go ahead of AA mainline or WOs, but wouldn’t you agree a reciprocal agreement would at least give us some priority over oal?

We have now leveled the playing field and AA is an OAL just like we are OAL on AA. Reciprocal.

I guess we will just have to agree to disagree.
