Honest question. No snark.
Section 8F is clear. Pilots are to be upgraded before any other passenger.

Any other passenger. Anyone want to bet that the guidance sent out is DH crew member?
I have not seen it happen, but if so call the union.

This is correct.

The company is using seat blocking to avoid the PWA. The latest is that he wants there to be "no visible benefit" to the pilots' working agreement. He does not want Flight Attendants or Gate Agents to see pilots getting seats per our PWA.

ALPA is on it.

He has made up stories and put pilots' certificates in jeopardy. When this happens he does not appreciate the problems he caused because he is not a pilot.

sounds like our management to me. They are obsessed with showing the non-cons that unions are useless and try to do it by taking pointless shots at us.

hope you are right. Have they filed a grievance? Or are they planning another m7 style giveaway

Good. Maybe they’ll resolve this pesky dispute by codifying the company’s position into our PWA.

Default Delta Difference

For anyone who has used the Delta Difference pass. If you purchase the upgrade to Comfort+, are you still on the upgrade list as PSUP to premium select and Delta 1 on the day of the flight?
