I don’t mind commuting I just hate the paranoia associated with listing in OALs. I’m out of DFW so options are in abundance It’s the whole listing process that gets weird.

Prior listing required for AA, SWA, and JetBlue to my knowledge through MyIDTravel.... Nod idea about Frontier, never used them...

I’ve never used it but I hear the Alpa jumpseat app has all the details on how to list for other airlines.

if you’re in the AA system and you have RES access, you know that you can just XI any pilot jumpseaters higher priority than you and somehow you’re #1 for the jumpseat... (j/k) Well that will work the first time anyways. All RES transactions are logged so they’d know whodunit and you couldn’t run fast enough.

They STILL use RES?!

We just won an arbitration on what happens after commuter drops if you wish to recoup some pay.

So what happens/happened? And what exactly do you mean by that? If a commuter drops a trip/reserve day and wants to pick something else up off the trade board or open time?

Don’t think it’s been published yet but we did get an email. Basically the company was not allowing commuter drop pilots to pick up open time or otherwise meet their trip. That practice will be stopped and solutions will be published is my understanding. I don’t commute so I kind of breezed over it.
