I’ve said multiple times that i think you guys deserve some sort of priority over oal.

However, i vehemently disagree with bringing AA pilots into your fight. It’s wrong.

 

Trying to understand your guys thoughts. 99% of us didn’t know this was even the case for you guys. As much work as you did you didn’t seem to spread the word very well.

 

I really agree with you. However, this has been asked many times with no response. How were we supposed to go about it?

I remember when we had Wings from US Air. That software gave us a reciprocal JS priority and no one cared at all. Then the merger happened. Wings was removed, and the AAC thing was created with NO JS privilege at ALL! It essentially went to the pre merger AA system with the D6 priority. Which was already a problem.


I KNOW for a FACT we went about this peacefully for YEARS! Our Management told
us it would be resolved and it never was. Our Union said the same and here we are.


What do we do? ALL Pilots will be more than welcome in my JS!! Even the guys that would deny me because of this issue. However, I Will RECIPROCATE if my Union tells me to.

Honestly I don’t even think this will be a problem in the near future. Hopefully.

You’re right. It probably could have been done better but here we are. You will ALWAYS be welcome on my JS. I will reciprocate however if any issues arise.

The purpose isn't to punish the pilots. It's to get a message across to AAG management, and sadly they won't listen until it affects their pilots. We want mainline management to give a FAIR agreement. Right now, getting the same treatment for the JS as a Spirit guy or Southwest guy while AAG pilots clearly get priority isn't a fair agreement. It's really that simple. Hell we'll even take AAC/FDJ. But having to use our benefits to get AAC or list as a D6 is NOT a fair and reciprocating agreement.

 

Is it not the AA pilots leaving the gate with OAL pilots over republic pilots?

I believe the issue is with the AAC code and CASS for the Jumpseat. FDJ/D6J are the codes approved for the JS. We have zero involvement there.

 

from what I understand RAH is also part owned now by AA.

 

25%, so it’s not a “totally different situation.”

 

Delta and ual own about equal share of rah so to say rah is owned in part by aa even at 25 percent is wrong. If theres a problem your jumpseat committee calls apa jumpseat committee and try to work it out. Since it's a computer issue the your rah jumpseat committee approaches aa, then your mgt approaches aa mgt, etc,.
Since you fly for 3 different brands you will not get priority because no one is going to pay for the program to track rah pilots flying aa flights. It's that simple. You think parker cares, please. I'm surprised that bb even cares as per your fom change, pretty sure he was not told of change.
You nor I have any control over gate listing of priority, its aa flight, its aag gate agent, they will follow aa policy.
When it's a rah flight scheduled as a rah flight sold as a rah flight advertised as a rah flight then feel free to implement what ever your heart desires.
