Just because you don't see one of us physically trolling the gatehouse for JSers, doesn't mean we don't. I always make the agents pull up the JS template to check for people who are on the list or checked in when I get onboard, and then take a look again if there is time before departure for any late shows.
Over here at CAL we are slowly but surely gaining a reputation for having one of the most unreliable jumpseat clearing procedure on earth. OAL Pilots are having a particularly hard time getting approved and it all boils down to our managements crappy software program.
I'll continue to troll the gates for jumpseaters and won't leave until they're put onboard.

I am surprised to hear of JB pilots not taking care of JS-ers since most of us commute.

The thing is, we ARE pressuring the company. I just talked with one of our two J/S committee guys who said he thought a lot of this junk had been fixed within the past week. If you have recent examples (within the past week) please PM me; otherwise we're just blowing smoke here. To the PCL guy, our operating crews are being encouraged to help you out; send Flt number and date to your J/S coordinator because our J/S guy seemingly is pretty good about reminding our CAs not to be laissez-faire about this.
It was not always this way for me at JBU in years past JBU has been very good to me.
Also whats up with putting pilots in the FA jumpseats before the cockpit???? They are always ****ed off that we are in the way and on a longer leg it seems to be more of an issue.
I think its great that we can use an FA jumpseat, but after the cockpit has filled up.
JBU is a nice company and most of the people are awesome, I dont want this to be a JBU bash.

Riding in the FA jumpseat before the cockpit is old news (at least six months). You can ride in the cockpit as long as the cabin is full, then if the cockpit is full you can ride in the FA jumpseat(s). The old rule was not imposed by Jetblue, it was from the FAA. They wanted the cockpit to be the last seats to be filled by offline guys. I don't know why, CASS is CASS. I'm glad that was changed and apologize if it was an inconvenience.

In 02 jetblue agents and crews would go way out of the way for JSers and its not the case anymore.
All kidding aside you jumped on me for saying I woulnt go out of my way anymore... I never said anything about not taking a JB JSer.
And the right seat comments are just stupid and childish. Im not even going any further with that.

Where did I make any "know it all" comments???? I just agreed with some people on here at JBU had some issues and over the past 2ish years they have stopped going out of the way for me, so I would stop going out of the way myself. I guess I should have said that it isnt the same jetblue of 2002/03. I never claimed to know it all about anything related to JB.
