The first couple interview groups did pretty well. It tanked shortly after that for quite some time until word got around that it wasn't just a formality like what was sold to the pilot group during the bankruptcy road shows. Why those first couple weeks went well and the rest didn't, I have no idea.

I hear that word a lot, but I never heard it described as a formality in road shows. That said, I would fully believe that TW would have described it as such if he thought it suited his purposes.

Hoping you guys can pass the word, but if the jumpseats open and you guys and gals are commuting to or from work and there’s a bunch of nonrevs listed please be so kind and take it, especially during the holidays...I know this is all situational (fatigue, OAL jumpseaters, length of commute, etc.) but I’ve seen so many Endeavor pilots of late (last 6 months) taking seats in the back when the jumpseats are wide open and causing nonrevs to not get on...again I know this is situational

Thank you

Commuting, absolutely (and take the FA seat if needed and available too) IF it's a positive space assignment, nope. That has been a big no no and puts the crew member at risk of being left behind and thus out of position by their own doing creating a C.P. carpet dance.

Yes I’m aware of the PS rule, that’s true for any airline, but it’s easy to spot 9E on the standby list and see whose getting on the flight as a standby passenger that’s in pilot clothes, you guys and gals wear name tags. I understand things have gone south in a particular upper-Midwest domicile and there are a lot of commuters to a large domicile on the east coast...but those flights are always full and leaving nonrevs behind...I’m always in the jumpseat to allow others to get on, I’d just like to see others be conscious of that as well

Depends what your commuting on. I commute on 200s regularly, not on 9E. No way am I giving up a seat in the back to help out, when the boys up front won’t “help out” by burning gas to make the JS work. Sorry not sorry my priority beats some other people’s. I’ve been burned too many times.

Mainline or larger RJ, sure it’s the right thing to do. But really think on the 200

Ever fly the 200? Most times you’re stuck between min fuel, max landing wt and max TO wt.
Throw in to far fwd cg then having to add ballast. It doesn’t work more often than not.

I was in the 200 for a year and a half, and we took many jumpseaters. It was maybe twice that we couldn't.

Three years on the -200, only left one behind. More often than not it can be done.
