United ALPA has declared that we don't have a valid jumpseat agreement with them. SAPA is saying the same as well, though for different reasons.

Where are you getting this from? I just looked at a United pilots MEC blast and the priority list is not what you've posted.

I would recommend steering clear of Skywest until this issue is resolved. There is a lot of hiring going on right now and you really don’t want to get in the middle of this food fight.

Not even your coworkers like you, go read some of your xjt threads. It must be sad.
