Under this logic AA, Envoy, PSA and Piedmont are OAL on Republic, Mesa and Skywest aircraft regardless of the paint on the aircraft. Does that sound about right?
And if so why have AA + wholly owned been getting priority above jetBlue, Southwest, Spirit, etc on Republic, Mesa and Skywest aircraft?

OAL is OAL, except for when it benefits AAG, then being a parent/sister company matters.
When you look up the idiomatic expression "trying to have your cake and eat it, too," Cujo's posts appear as examples. It's downright impressive the brazenness with which he attempts this. The total inconsistency from one thought to the next and the mental gymnastics required to make it so.

No, we’re under the impression that we are another airline (OAL) and we control OUR Jumpseat priority. Ticket sales are not what holds the power in dictating JS priority. It‘s RAH’s Jumpseat, if APA wants to get better priority then maybe they should negotiate, otherwise we will be equal to each other in our own respective Jumpseat. Pretty simple.

don't like is don't jumpseat except on rah flights. That should solve your problem.

Better learn to not assume. I live in base and avoid jump seating like the plague.

own metal
own Company
OAL
simple. It’s an AA flight, they own every seat on the plane except for your own metal JS priority.
As others have said. APA said no. Case closed

Boom. And if you want to have something in your FOM that says AA pilots go behind all OAL pilots, I’d expect the same treatment in the very near future. Not in any way a threat, simply an observation.
