What is going on with hotels not booked, vans not set up for pick up, wrong hotel reservation. It keeps happening over and over. Am I delusional or this is happening to everyone else also?

We had a driver who took us to the wrong hotel a few weeks ago in Tampa, but I believe it was the driver's fault.
I haven't had any other issues with hotel and/or bus.

Question for Spirit guys. Say you list for the OAL/non-rev link on Spirit's website for a flight. You check in at the airport and check your free bag. On the plane, all seats fill up and you have to sit up front in the FD jumpseat. Will the checked bag still travel when you are physically in the jumpseat?
Also, I know the 320 has 1 jumpseat for you and the 319 has 2. Probably a no, but if that is filled can a OAL pilot sit in the FA jumpseat?
Thanks!

2) Per the most recent FOM revision, OAL pilots are no longer permitted on the FA jumpseat. Our A320's don't have an extra FA jumpseat anyway. A319's have one.

Well, that's what I was told. If so, I'm wondering who is the weak sister that let the AFA castrate our PIC authority.

As an aside, is there any chance we could get the second cockpit jumpseat reinstalled at some point? As this pilot group grows, we are only going to have more commuters.
