I

Because we have a lot more time money and effort into this career than someone hired yesterday to throw bags. Simple as that.

Can pilots jumpseat on international flights? Some airlines don't allow pilots to jumpseat during an international flight while others will.

The funny thing about this back and forth about priority is that AA also does it by time of check in vs DOH. For those of you worried about it, it’s been almost a complete non-issue in my 15 years here.

At spirit, sure. Go ask a mainline AA/UA ramper how much turnover they have, its a career for most of them. I'd also argue your family has no skin in the game. They don't work here, why should they bump an actual employee? I understand Spirit Is mostly Pilot/FA's and everyone else is a contractor. It's not like that at 'real' airlines, you're one tribe of many.

ZED on AA/UA/DL, can list in business on UA & AA.
Can list in business on some other random carriers like LOT Polish Airlines, but I'm not aware of a complete list.
The list of ZED carriers is pretty long, with several Asian/SE Asian carriers.
Honestly there is hardly anywhere in the world you couldn't get to with our ZED agreements.

Just curious, can anyone confirm if B6 pilots can list business or any other premium cabin category on Aer Lingus, Emirates, Qatar, Virgin Atlantic and Icelandair from your Interline Agreements?

Thanks
