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.

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.

We aren't cherry picking. It's Industry Standard. Are APA and AAG pilots afraid of Industry Standard?

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?

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.

Giving us AAC FDJ does not harm you in any way. Why are you against it?

I’m just now hearing about this cat fight. First of all, do you all know exactly how many guys missed their flights in the last 2 years that this higher priority would have saved? Also, do you all know that our IT dept would be able to make this work in decs?

Stop saying reciprocal. You guys cannot give us what you are asking us to give you.

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
