You are being offered FCFS. Are you trying to usurp priority on a DL and UA branded flight now? You are OAL to Republic DL and UA

AAG’s entire fleet is FCFS to all airlines and you complain about it not being reciprocal.

To make it fair/reciprocal you make a portion of your fleet FCFS to all airlines, and another portion based on affiliate then FCFS.

That’s not reciprocal, I thought this whole thing started of it not being reciprocal, and it still isn’t.

I just played golf with a RPA chief...he said when the RPA CLT base opens, this jumpseat thing is going to get even more crazy.

I can help. If you stop using the terms reciprocal or equal, we will stop pointing out that you cannot give us what you are asking us to give you. You want priority on all AA flights and can only give us priority on half of your flights. That’s about as simple as it gets.

Mesa is not changing the Js priority.

If it were truly FCFS then your wholly owneds would not receive priority. But sure I'll play ball and say that yeah they're affiliated with AAG and should be included even though they aren't part of APA. It's also the reason AA pilots go ahead of OAL on the wholly owned regionals.

You want the same priority on the non wholly owneds yet want to keep us as OAL. Sorry but that just isn't cutting it. Again, you are now FCFS on every single YX JS. Welcome aboard.

AAC FDJ would be for Republic, Mesa, and SkyWest

How are you as an AAG pilot hurt by giving the non wholly owned regionals a bump in priority over OAL for doing American Eagle flying? The answer is you are not hurt in any way. It all comes down to your ego and not wanting to see us get a perceived gain.

If you want priority in the YX JS you will have it again when we get that slight bump above OAL and BELOW EVERY AAG pilot.

Just curious, are the gate agents AA or RAH?

If they're AA, I think you're all overlooking what would probably happen.

They have a D2 and a D6. RAH captain says put on the D6. Maybe the agent will, but I doubt it. If they do, said AA pilot can call and ask the standby list be audited and it will show the agent didn't board in priority order. Sure the J/S belongs to the captain, but the D6 still has to be cleared through CASS. Agents will start saying they don't have time and no one will ride.

Just throwing out another alternative. Don't work at either, not affected, just amused.
