Sorry to go off topic, but I was at a training event today when a pilot from United related an interesting story. After he found out I was a Spirit pilot, he stopped making fun of Spirit, but he did say he jump seats on us quite often. Said he was commuting FLL-ORD and the CA told him he'd have to check his roller bag and expect to get charged $100 for it.
He was very insistent this actually happened when I challenged him about it, he said it was the only time he had an experience that wasn't top notch from the crews. He said he thought the CA was joking at first, but said the CA was very serious. The FO ended up telling him there was space on his side of the flight deck for his roller bag.
Please tell me we are not charging commuting pilots for their bags or we have CAs doing this. Again, this was just one pilot relating his experience, I don't have his name, the CA's name or when this happened.
