Does one get charged for jumpseating on a Bro that effectively has no jumpseat? Has you some time play football?

But deny me the jumpseat going HOME and it will be a different matter, especially since you are holding me responsible for something that Jeff did to you... not the United pilots.

Hey, you might be on to something here! Only deny when it benefits the pilot (and with his tacit approval) and hurts management. Interesting concept. I wonder if such a movement would be considered "self help." Hmmm.

Does your commuter policy pay protect you?

Wait until they slap that imputive income on it and the IRS takes more.

The PAC effort is correct in going after the preclearance facility. We are in that together. If we don't fly, we don't need feed. You and I (no matter who you are or I am) have the same network interests here.

The airlines clamoring for the preclearance facility have announced O&D out of JFK and IAD this week. They are going to push EU limits and part of that is having their own US hub, even if it happens to bridge Europe & Asia more than the US. Just as English is the international language of business and the Dollar is the most widely held international currency, US travel documents facilitate a lot of business. Simply put, our Nation should not help alien companies put US workers out of work.

Good point.

I'm assuming these fees are in addition to imputed income? And will those jumpseating but sitting in the back pay these fees?
