You’re about to be waaaaaay better off than a staple. Once you start class, THEN awe should staple. That way Joe Merchant can swing gear for ya.

The routes are mainline routes that are farmed out to the regionals. Without mainline, that airplane owned by a regional would just be a static display. Seniority should be honored.

And without regionals that poor 25+ year mainline pilot wouldn’t get his / her fat paycheck.

Does that mean you can use an FA jumpseat if there’s one available? Or do you need an actual passenger seat to be open?

Any mainline captain arguing about priority on regional jets for space available travel is an idiot. I simply buy tickets, first class most of the time (actually had a nice round trip on an E-175 in 1st recently and enjoyed the extra room). Could care less who is where on the standby list as chances are nobody but a jumpseater will get on any jet. Non-rev travel domestically died several years ago.
