Man just call in sick. Don't panic it's happened to us all.

I don't live in PHX or commute, I'm just here visiting family. I've tried every flight, going anywhere, on every airline (or so it seems). I've made more than an honest effort by spending going on two days at the airport trying to get out of here. This IS my nightmare.

Should I call the company and tell them what's up, is there anything they can do like a positive space ticket considering the circumstances?

I wouldn't call the company asking for a PS ticket. Chances are they will say "sorry bub" and if you call in sick after telling the company that you are having trouble getting back to IAD they might connect the dots.

Did you try the "red-eye" that goes out to ORD around mid-night - I never had a problem getting a row of seats to myself on that one and then I've never had a problem ORD to IAD.

But basically have you tried multi-legging it - I can't believe there are no seats/jumpseats heading in an easterly direction out of PHX.

I use to non rev out of PHX to CLT and it was a nightmare and Im sure with the HP/U merger there are a lot more jumpseaters between East and West.....you can use a commuter clause at Mesa once a year that is worthless. My advice and speaking from experience...work somewhere else.

Agree. Put yourself out of that misery and help put MESA out of business too.

Welcome to what we commuters call "everyday life". Call in sick...the company will not help you and will probably punish you for your honest effort.

Mesa won't positive space you. That would be too nice to a pilot. They are too low quality.

FedEx or UPS would be options too. FDX jumpseat page is on their profile page here. UPS call: 800-228-2739

There's your ticket out of town. Get on any of their flights and start heading East.
