You know the funny thing about that? We have friends who have traveled the world almost effortlessly using buddy passes. And yet at times using D1 vacation passes we have ended up just driving

I will say that non-reving for purposes other than work has become more and more difficult after AA introduced the basic economy fare. We even just purchase tickets on JetBlue to some places because the tickets are extremely reasonable and the service is on par with mainline.

Example you’re trying to jumpseat an envoy flight and an envoy pilot shows up last minute, their jumpseat.

I believe the contract carriers get listed as AAC which is lower than a D3. Someone can correct me if I’m wrong.
Do you check in online or do you have to show up to the gate?

For all stuff American we check in online. If you’re trying to jumpseat on another carrier, gate.

1475 with the required atp mins of 25 multi and multi commercial. You can get hired with less but you’d have to qualify for the restricted atp military or went to avaiation college.

You'll be in training for about 3 months and some sim slots are at 3am. Do you want to share hotel room during that time???

Hey everyone please take a brief moment and fill this out! Tell your representatives in Washington how you feel about them using your tax dollars to research single-pilot operations.
