dont shoot the messenger
Wouldn’t want to make our future employer JetBlue angry either.

In all seriousness, we would have to include JetBlue in this elevated priority as they also will be flying our passengers. We can deny them the jumpseat until they give us priority too!

50% of our flights are AA.

DL and UA and Alaska offer priority to their regionals. US Airways used to offer priority to its regionals. It is AA that is not following Industry Standard practices. I highly doubt DL and UA are going to allow OAL carriers to dictate JS priority.

United offers us priority on our own metal so your rep is completely wrong yet again. DL also gives us priority but it is equal to DL employees and goes by Date of Hire which AA doesn't even do. I don't understand why APA is obsessed with nonrev priority when it has zero to do with JS.

Is there anything APA gets correct? So far I'm less than impressed.

No one is denying you the JS. Stop being deceitful.

interesting, FWIW I’m a DAL guy so not associated with either company. But I highly doubt DL is looking to change OO or RAH priority, I could be wrong though.

while DAL does not give higher priority than mainline to RAH on own metal we do give equal priority to them (tiebreaker being DOH). but we do give higher priority to skywest than mainline on OO flights. But non revving and jumpseating are two different things. (IIRC UAL also gives own metal higher priority than mainline. To convert it to AA speak, all own metal UAX are D1s, so only UA on vacation passes are able to compete, and that comes down to DOH at each company)

while those companies may have sent memos asking management not to change things, I doubt anything would change if you did. case and point; DAL gives contract carriers higher priority than OAL yet we receive the same priority on all those carriers as AA.

You forgot to say “welcome aboard”. Slacker.
