Thanks.
It happened 3-4 times this summer (always in SEA, but different agents). I just started dropping the W5 listing on my own as I was watching loads increase and just list as X1 and request the JS when it started to become obvious there weren't any seats in back. Only denied a JS once (when CLP was playing tankering games). Haven't run into it since. I'll just continue to list as W5 and if I run into the problem again, I'll e-mail the union.

Twice in the last two weeks have been denied the jumpseat on the Q400. Flight restricted to 74 total pax. Both cockpit and fa jumpseats were part of the 74 total. Both times there was a QX fa jumpseater denied as well. Some kind of new normal?

Since they updated the average pax and bag weights this has been an issue. Lots of weight restricted Q flights. If you are a QX pilot, anytime this happens (you getting denied the JS because of weight) please email the union jumpseat email and our CP (EB). Both are tracking the issues and the more reports/emails they get, the better.

110% agree with fly guy it’s getting bad CLP isn’t playing ball when trying to move fuel around get jumpseaters on. Last 2 weeks had 2 people not get on cause CLP told the gate no.
