Why do you ask

Did you think this thread was about the hub turn meeting?

I will refer you to the thread title, where I made the airline perfectly clear.

No new news there. Same as March pilot meeting.

I left there thinking some of the RFOs will be replaced by a unmanned ground station in cargo sometime in the future. Helped along by the cargo cutout.

However, that's not the reason I started the thread.

I really just wanted to know what was said at the hub turn meeting.

Nothing more, nothing less.

... also a mechanic in CLT who rides the jumpseat EVERY WEEK!

If you're thinking it's 2-3 x / yr, you are wrong.

This subject has been beaten to death but I'll summarize. If a mechanic HAS to ride, he's on duty, no problem. If a mechanic WANTS to ride and there is a seat behind the door...no problem. If a mechanic WANTS to ride and jumpseat admin books him in the COCKPIT without first receiving PIC permission.....big problem (for some, apparently not you)
