Hope you guys get this thing fixed soon...Your airline is putting your reciprocal agreements at risk.

SWA will always be welcome in my jump, even if your reservation system is sh1t.

Please show me where just one union, airline or anyone in any official capacity has said anything even remotely in the realm that you are talking about. You can't because you are pulling it out of your !@#$#.
This issue happens with other airlines as the previous poster said it is more of a problem with my ID travel.
The other issue has been taken care of and affected an incredibly small percentage of pilots.
The fact that you even think this is remotely a thing shows that you need to put down the vodka, step away from the computer and take some time off away from APC.
Because I am sure that removing the largest domestic carrier from your reciprocal agreement over very few problems with the jumpseat will hurt a lot more non SW people than it will anyone else.
The best part is your post was almost as comical as the Monday PIREP.

A friend couldn’t get home from LAX on us Sunday because of this issue. Sat a few hours and rode home on his own metal. Seems every company gets hit by this from time to time, though.
So the listing requirement...just dependent on the specific company’s reservation software, some government requirement, or spelled out within the contract? Seems our contract doesn’t have very specific language covering OAL jumpseat access. Since we probably carry the majority of OAL commuters on our network, is it worth spending some negotiating capital to require a walk up Jumpseat option? If we spend money at the table making that happen, should we then restrict JS access to those companies who do the same?

You don't need to spend neg capital for your company to do the right thing...
Let's review;
Walk up to jumpseat; DAL/UAL and just about everyone else.
Must list prior or no can do jumpseat; AAL and SWA.
So management at American and SWA enjoy their pilots easily commuting to work so they can generate revenue, but make it harder for UAL/DAL and others...
I'd say the issue is crappy in house unions but you tell me ...

Spirit and frontier require listing as well. And now United you can only list at gate. Can't do it at customer service at all.
