Default PO3S non-rev on US Airways

Anyone know what a "PO3S" is in terms of status? Would they go ahead of someone if there was a priority one listing on the same flight?

That is a new code for me

Thanks

Long story short, apparently if you are planning on taking the jumpseat on that flight...make other plans...

Yes. You will still show primary online as well.

Anyone that lets a positive space ticket into the jumpseat thereby bumping a commuting jumpseater needs a beating.

But there are two jumpseats, if you are primary you should be fine.

Unless that positive space is the FAA

PO3S is a positive space flight deck JS listing. It has nothing to do with the cabin. It can be used for such things as check airmen doing a line check, SOWA (or whatever that acronym is?) audits, FAA inspector, etc. If you are commuting and see that listing, assume that they will show up and be first in line for the JS. If you are secondary on a flight with a PO3S, I'd make alternate plans.

I have seen where PO3S's don't show up, for whatever reason.. but if they do, they will bump a PRI/SEC (depending on how many JS's are on the airplane).

I thought we were talking about positive space in the cabin.
