Non Rev boarding issues
What's the best way to complain? I just came home from PHX and an S3 and an S3C were boarded in Comfort ahead of us. I have the info from the "Cleared list" Happened back in January and frankly, it happens most of the time I nonrev or DH. I walk back to coach and see empty Comfort seats at pushback.
Is an FCR appropriate or call the pass bureau, union, CPO?

My biggest issue is with JS reservation, if you reserve the JS, there should be an automatic S3 check in. If there’s a seat you can choose if you want the seat or the JS. Sometimes the flight is full and some seats open at the end. I’ve been times seating in the JS while a regional pilot gets the last seat in comfort +.
Also, if the flight is delayed and you want to non-rev but the original departure time has passed, good luck trying to get the agent to list you.

AA has this. When the JSeater checks in ONLINE!, he can choose what type of pass. When they are clearing the standby list, agent calls them and ask if they want seat or JS.
You can also see who’s a jumpseater in their standby list, even if they are not reserved in the JS.

The catch with the AA system is you can't actually reserve the jumpseat, meaning it just goes in seniority order based on who's checked in. Our system of knowing far in advance that you have basically a guaranteed seat is still much better.

AA can reserve jumpseat basically 8 days in advance. It’s then theirs, regardless of seniority. First come first serve.
