It seems you don’t even read your own posts. I don’t care about having any kind of priority on delta flights operated by republic. It’s the lowest priority and that’s where it should be. It’s offline. But you guys are threatening to deny AA guys on AE flights operated by republic for delta etc based on JS ownership. Yea good luck with that.

I personally do but unfortunately some folks just have other commitments that preclude them from enjoying that life. I especially understand and feel for the regional folks who commute. At the rate that bases open and close at the regionals I wouldnt move either.

Yea when I started I was commuting, made it about 6 months and said screw this and moved into base. I honestly don't know how people go their whole career doing it. Either way, I'll grab some popcorn and a coke and watch this sh*t show unfold.

Hard to say that when your spouse has a great job.

You do realize giving us AAC FDJ ahead of OAL does not harm AAG in any way right? Why are you so against the move?

So then you guys do get priority on DAL and UAL over everyone else like I said earlier. So if I try to jumpseat on Delta, I’ll get bumped out by a RAH pilot. UAL, same thing. And that goes for Alaska Fedex JetBlue etc pilots trying to jumpseat too. Now you want the same on AA and you’re being told no, and that’s causing a temper tantrum. Seriously, who do you guys think you are? If that’s how the other two big guys want to write their agreements then that’s their prerogative. “Industry standard” doesn’t mean it’s right.

No we don't get priority over everyone else. There are numerous scenarios depending on the carriers involved. I can get bumped off DL and UA by many different pilots.

No one is threatening to deny the jumpseat. With due respect, please stop spreading this false narrative. We are simply advocating for an elevated priority of AAC FDJ. However, APA has gone back to ignoring our union. In order to make things reciprocal, if we continue to be D6 on your jumpseat, you will need to list D6 on ours. Nothing more nothing less. Look forward to having you all on my jumpseat.
You want priority over OAL on all of our flights. We get priority over OAL on our flights that you operate. Not on all of your flights.
Reciprocal is us getting priority over OAL on all of your flights, and you getting priority over OAL on all of our flights. Please stop spreading this false narrative

Our JS Committee informed us APA has walked away and as a result nothing further can be done. We would have preferred option 1 to be implemented but now APA has chosen option 2.
