Stand together, fellow pilots. We may not agree, but professional courtesy is something we have full control over. Lets exercise that please.

Everyone involved in this incident took it very seriously, both at the union and management levels. Our Jumpseat Committee reports today that the Captain involved has been counseled, and further such issues are not anticipated.
As a US pilot, I'd like to sincerely apologize to the AA guys who couldn't get to work and back because of this. Please be assured it was an isolated incident. Politics should stay out of the jumpseat!

But you and cacti come on here and talk about integrity and uphold the west's jump seat war with the east. Amazing.
Now regarding transporting east pilots up front, I say bring them on as it allows me to victimize them for the next 4hrs
