If you're worried about policing non-compliant jumpseaters, check with the gate first to see if you actually have a JSer.


I’ve also been harassed by an Envoy CA while on a DH. After talking to the FO and FA, apparently he was notorious for this sort of thing.

Granted, I was not with a whole crew, so I can see how the optics might support his conclusion. His tactics were undesirable, to say the least.

My nomination is the heartless, hypocritical clowns who post terribly disrespectful things about Phil Trenary on social media. A man was executed in the street and they think it's a good time to disagree with how he ran Pinnacle AND say they're not unhappy he's dead?! Apparently, they were never taught if you don't have anything nice to say, DON'T say anything at all.

Being a free labor/market society, individuals have the freedom to jump ship from an operation if they feel they are being obused, mistreated, taken advantage of, underpaid, overworked... well you can add more. But for anyone to wish death is just not right.

I feel bad for the wife, children, and future grandchildren.

I’m sure when your time comes, with no ill will, of course, you’ll be sorely missed by only those love you.

Not forced to stay in a seniority based career?

Oh ok then you can both leave your carrier and start over tomorrow with no issues?

“If you don’t like it then leave” doesn’t apply to the airlines.

That said respect for the dead is always called for regardless of their transgressions.

Why? If they didn't earn your respect while they were alive, they certainly don't suddenly deserve it just by dying.

Fact. He was doing a job, we don't like it, but no one deserves to be gunned down like that. Well, maybe a few politicians and IRS agents, but besides that...JK.
