A more reasoned response would have been to not act like a bunch of punks. Weaponizing the JS is wrong on so many levels. Too late to put the genie back in that bottle. Really stupid decision making. Negotiations are always a better alternative.

That's the part UAL keeps missing... at least art YX, and I'm sure with OO, we wanted to/tried to negotiate... Your circus union told us to pound sand. That's why they told us to just deny then.

UALALPA has asked us not to deny jumpseats, even to SWest. I will do as they ask but I will be sending JS info to UALALPA and Flight Ops as requested. My guess is they are cross referencing names to see if cAPTAINS that deny jseats are using them on U.
Way above my paygrade. I will not weaponize the jumpseat (unless you are a SCAB). My observation over 25 years is pilots may be fractured a lot of the time but the wagons tend to circle when the attack comes from within on closely guarded privileges like the JS. My personal opinion is it’s very short-sighted to think there won’t be consequences of some sort for the participants. It also seems short sighted to jump on a wagon apparently driven by pilots who have no aspirations to leave SWest. Maybe I’m missing something. In any case, weaponizing the JS was a huge tactical failure IMHO. |

Do you really think the captain told the gate no APLA or do you think that’s all they could regurgitate? Thanks Rick Kinda giving the hot heads ammunition. You had the ca there apparently did you ask if he said that? |

The ZW guy in question wasn’t able to see his kids thanks to the petty crap this OO CA pulled. He was in fact listed as a non-rev, because he had gotten denied for the j/s. Real classy.
It’s been suggested that perhaps a misunderstanding occurred in the comm between the gate and jet bridge. Whether it did or not, this highlights an important point of leaving the gate agents out of this. There’s been several reports of captains too chicken**** to deny the j/s face to face, and instead, briefing agents to not send down or even list UAL/UAX-E jumpseaters. Their JOB is to do exactly that! I don’t know, perhaps these pilots think they’ll remain nameless if the jumpseaters never make it to the plane?? That would be a bad assumption. Whichever the case, the tantrum will eventually either be abandoned or it will be taken too far and Mom will lose her patience and **** gets real.. |

Well, considering he’s my classmate and have spoken to him directly, all true. What else you got?
