The company can't tell FAs that DHDs must clean and tell Pilots the opposite. You are either right, or they used the wrong word when they typed Duty in that last sentence. Perhaps they really meant operating pilots.

Maybe this would be a good question for the next episode of Ask Johanna? Is it only operating pilots that are exempt from the expectation to clean, because this is what Inflight is being told and what was published in the field notes, and elsewhere.

The FOM says the exact same thing in both PEs for the pilots (Captain and First Officer). It isn't a typo or a mistake. In fact, the last revision clarified that pilots traveling while not on duty, including commuting, are bound by the pass riding guide. That means the converse is true (that pilots are NOT bound by the pass riding guide if traveling on duty (DHD)).

Like I said, the FOM is crystal clear, and it's on Comply so you can look it up if you so choose.

I’m afraid I’d just get in the way or wouldn’t do it right. I’m not that good at that kind of stuff.

Pilots are not required to clean when on duty, and DHD travel is definitely duty. Also, DHD travel is NOT using pass privileges. You're traveling on duty, for work, and even if your pass travel were suspended, you could (and must) DHD.

You agree that cleaning is REQUIRED for pilots while non-reving? Strange you didn't say that to CaptCoolHand while he insists it's not.

The next passenger will find those gloves in my seatback pocket. Unused.

Maybe they can make balloon animals out of them.

Why are you guys even engaging with this FA troll? Just ignore and it will go away.

Thank you. I got on and it was one of those Big front/space seats, just behind Mint. Impressive service and small touches like the earplugs/eyemask kit. After the flight I did cross my seatbelt and ensure the pocket in front of me was clear of garbage. That was the extent of my helping out post-flight :)

Aren’t you an alaska pilot. Please don’t even do that!
