Ok. Thanks for explaining what these are and the different categories.
I'm still trying to understand the nuances of this whole process.
While in training, because we are not qualified yet, I guess we don't have access to the jump seat?
Are you saying not to use D1 to commute when a jump seat is available, which doesn't require a pass? This makes sense in that respect but seems to me nothing is more important than getting TO work or maybe I'm just not initiated to the system yet.
Thanks

Don't use a D1 to commute. Commuting depends on a lot of variables. Who you're flying on, who has checked in, when you checked in, seniority, etc. A D1 does nothing to get you to the top of the list for a jumpseat. You'll have access to the jumpseat once you have your badge. I went home the weekend during indoc and had to jump on Expressjet going home. No issues trying to get on.
page 546,15-46, 6, 6.1, B.
The last sentence of that paragraph is very important and not many people know about it or what is says. Knowledge is power. Especially when it comes to commuting!

That's only on Envoy flight jumpseat. Not AA jumpseat. If you are commuting from DFW to ORD that's going to be on a AA jumpseat. If there is a AA pilot ahead of you he will get the jump seat. If it's a envoy flight you would bump the AA pilot off the jump seat. This was my interpretation of the above.

We will have to park 20-30 jets to get these 175's. In other words, we won't be growing.

But, from my understanding, (e75 manager in ground school said this) is that they're not new E75s and they're coming from another airline. He didn't specify for whom.

All they have to do is remove some seats from PSA's -700s to make them "small RJs." Also, some of the Mesa -900s are getting up there in age, so I guess it's not out of the realm of possibility that some of those are parked. Just a WAG on that.
