Hopefully this gets fixed soon. |

It's because you're only listed as FDJ EAG, not which EAG you work for.
Yea apparently it stems back from when their was only one wholly owned. Now that there’s three they can’t update Sabre to show FDJ PDT or FDJ ENY lol. |

Hopefully this gets fixed soon. Envoy pilots are ahead of mainline on PSA and PDT as well... |

Envoy pilots are ahead of mainline on PSA and PDT as well... I know. I just didn’t list out all the possible scenarios. It’s in the process of getting fixed apparently. |

Why should a mainline pilot go before an eagle pilot on an eagle flight? I don’t commute, but if I did I’d be ****ed if that were the case. Maybe with the “change” the company will give eagle pilots the ability to reserve the JS a week in advance.

Bc “eagle” isn’t an airline. Your options are American, PSA, Piedmont or Envoy. Company pilots should get priority on their own metal then time of check in for the rest. I don’t see why any wholly owned guys would be opposed to this. It’s how it’s done everywhere else and you’ll spend a lot more time at mainline than at the regional. Well unless you’re a lifer in which case lol. |

I wouldn’t be opposed to mainline pilots having priority over off-line Eagle pilots on other WO metal.
But really the thing I would love to see is for AAC be listed as, “AAC FDJ”. That would help out tremendously for commuting. Especially for those who have to commute on the contract “Eagle” regionals. Them separating the each WO listing by company will be nice as well. PSA FDJ, EVY FDJ, PDT FDJ etc... |
