This is exactly why playing "jumpseat wars" is dangerous. Before long, management catches on to the game, and then you have to worry about more jumpseating privileges. I can't say I would deny anyone a jumpseat, but not letting me on is really damaging what little sympathy I have for them. |

I would not welcome a gojet guy on my airplane, and by the same token I would not ask them for a ride. I am not going to pretend to be all friendly to get a JS, and then talk sh*t behind their backs. Folks who use their jumpseat should not be two-faced about it, just my opinion.

A FedEx captain and I tried to jumpseat from ORD to STL on GoJet and were denied boarding. There were 15 open seats, but the captain just flat out said no! Needless to say I was kinda mad!
Why would you even try? Take a little longer walk and go over to the AA terminal. At least then you would have some dignity. |

its your call hippies,
either let everyone jumpseat everywhere and watch the bar slowly become lower and lower or take a stand, tell someone no and prevent alterego, union bustin companies from ever happening aviation is the only industry where people give free rides to work to other people undercutting their pay. you dont see teamster truckers picking up illegal immigrants and giving them a rife to their job do you? |
What a great point!

I work for AWAC, but we don't have a no GoJet jumpseat policy that i'm aware of and I'm sure FedEx doesn't either.
As an FO I have no authority for denying a jumpseat, but if we did have a GoJet pilot on our jumpseat (are they even CASS?) I would make it a miserable experience for them. They would earn that ride by looking me in the eyes and explaining to me why THEY chose to work for GoJet when dozens of other carriers were hiring, why its okay for them to have a job at the expense of my friends that got furloughed, and what they think about being an active participant in Hulas' whipsaw of TSA ALPA. Then when we got to the destination, I'd tell them to have a nice day. |
