Jumpseat Priority
#31
Yeah, it's a pain. We're either D6 for the JS or AAC for non-rev but not both.. which is dumb. At least we all get non-rev on all 3 airlines we operate for.

Yea I don’t like that. I could have sworn it was by time of check in for every AAG pilot and that if it was “your” metal you got priority.

Just read your company jumpseat policy in the operation manual.
W/O are owned by aag so they go above d6 and APC who are subcontracted to fly as american eagle. Non w/o does not have priority of aa or w/o EXCEPT ON THEIR OWN METAL.
Get over it, change companies If it bothers you that much.

If you commute on Eagle flights and it’s that much of an issue for you all three wholly owned Eagles and all the contract carriers are hiring and you would have priority then... I don’t see why this is an issue. Don’t be dicks to each other when commuting and everything will work out.

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...

And yes, I’m speaking in very broad terms, but the same thing applies to those who say that they should get flow to AA because AAG owns 26% of the company. I can’t see giving extra incentives to those who choose to help the competition.
The same goes for Mesa and Skywest. Should a Mesa CR7 IAD driver be able to get the jumpseat on AA over an XJT guy just because his company flies the 900 out of another base for AA? It’s impossible to keep them all separate and that’s why I agree with the policy of them having to cancel and AAC listing and go to D6UJ. I always check the GPALL to make sure the jumpseat is given out appropriately.
