You might as well go back to the days when mother Delta didn't even allow jumpseaters (yes, I am that old).
Grow a set and refuse to drop the brake until the pilot needing a ride is on your plane; I have.
Interesting 4 post history. You create an eponymous account just to sarcastically take a jab at the recent super-cringe video, while pretending to be a Delta pilot. You then comment in Frontier's forums (which is likely where you really work), and then with absolutely
staggering self-righteous entitlement, demand a
privlege. Over which Delta pilots have zero control given the circumstances.
I've missed a commute before too. I get it, it sucks. But emotional "hot take" posts accounts rarely age well for several reasons, not the least of which is when you are demonstrably
wrong. As already pointed out,
there are zero airlines who will bump a paying passenger for you to ride to work, including yours (wherever you work), regardless of whether it's for weight or performance. The fact that our company grants
our own the privlege of not getting bumped is irrelevant to you (since you obviously don't work here). Anonymity really strengthens your argument too, btw. </S>
I'll bet when you sleep on this, and calm down a little, you will (hopefully) feel a little embarassed. But at least you used a burner account, so no harm done.
