Lowest lineholder in LGA is a 12/16 hire.

D6UJ pretty sure... but it doesn't show you what airline they are it's just an "other airline jumpseater".

Thanks! So on a Mesa plane it will still be D6UJ but he will have priority over anyone non-Mesa. Saw a couple weird ones on the list and didn't know if they were pilots or what.

Company pilots always have priority on company metal.

Jet blue or Skywest or any other pilot will also show D6UJ so you won't know until you see them.

Quick question. December 2016 new hire based in LGA, awarded DFW June 1st, then the company moved it to July 2nd, now on June 1st, company again moves this to August 1st. Is there anything in the contract to prevent this from continuing to happen? What is the point of awarding an exact date only to keep moving it back each month? Making it pretty difficult to make any plans. Maybe I am naive to the airline industry, but please advise if there is anything that could be done other than to just expect things like this in the future. Thanks

I've seen Mesa guys show up as AAC(?) ,which is still below D3, before. However they are notorious for just showing up at the gate without listing. Mainly because they know they are very low on the non-rev priority and also own the Jumpseat on their own metal.

This happened to several guys last year. Awarded DFW, got pushed back five times. Almost ten months later than originally awarded. As far as contractual rights go, I don't think there is any protections. Just ****ed off pilots is the result.

Correction: Look at section 15 H of the contract. There is a limit of six months, but I'm not sure if that only applies to bid status requiring training or ALL regardless.

Yes, MESA guys can show up as AAC (non-WO AA regional employee) or D6UJ. I've seen a Mesa guy at the gate talking with the agent about it and he said that it's just makes things simpler to list as a D6UJ most of the time. But AAC's do have higher priority than D3s.
