We use Weblist in Skynet to check loads and list for flights, both Positive Space (PS) and Non-revenue space available (NRSA). We do not have access to the Departure Management (DM) list, which has been a source of irritation since I've been at UAL. You can get an idea of where you stand using the Apollo res system, but it is cumbersome and time consuming (think typing multiple DOS commands here) if there are a lot of SAs listed. Some of the third party software packages automate this and make it much easier, for a price. Employees traveling PS are not shown in a separate category on Weblist, only the total number of Booked (PS travelers included with customers) and NRSA are displayed.

We can check in online starting 24 hours prior as well, and if you're PS you can view seats and make a change if you see an available seat you'd rather have. We have the smartphone boarding pass option also, I have not used it yet.

When you get to the gate for your flight, the standby list with number of open seats remaining will be displayed on the monitors, if that gate has them. But the list can include revenue standbys as well as NRSA and does not ID who's what, of course the revenues will be ahead of NRSAs on the list. If that gate is not equipped with monitors, you won't know where you stand on the list unless you've gone into Apollo or the CSR is in a good mood and tells you you're #X and there are Y seats available.

EWRflyr, from your description it sounds like your system gives you more info than Skynet gives us. It's already been said here that UAL has a lot of room for improvement in the IT department, but it's worth repeating. The merger presents a great opportunity to upgrade our systems.

RNAV Approaches vs RNAV RNP Approaches.....Not to be confused, two different Approaches per criteria.

RNAV: Direct Point-to-Point Routing via the approach course, Radar Monitoring during the Approach needed.

RNAV/RNP: More "Complex Routes" ie "RF" segments on the Approach, Tighter Performance Req. (More restrictive TERPS), No Radar Requirements, Seamless Vertical Path/Routing....RNP mins vary per Ops Certificate IE CAL .15, or SWA .30

Has it become self-aware yet? :eek:
