OAL jumpseatin'
Maybe many of you know this already, but as an FNG, I just recently figured out some jumpseat protocol... In CASS: DAL, ASA, and company j.s.( is this true for all DCI's?), we are designated "OH" and add 60 to the front of emp# and plus 00 on the end (i.e. 60XXXXX00).
For OAL jumpseats, we are still "OH" but the emp # entered is 0 plus emp# only (as shown on the back of our i.d. badges). Recently traveled j.s. on Spirit, United Express, and AA...all the crews and agents were very gracious!!
...but none of the agents knew what to input into CASS, so you may need to let them know.
I looked for this kind of info on the ALPA jumpseat guide and could not find anything. Is this stuff posted anywhere? Also, anyone know where I can find a list of the airlines that would allow us to do Int'l jumpseat, if any?
Also, here's a great link to find out all airlines that fly between two cities...

Would appreciate other tips any of you may have discovered...

I could see us getting a good portion of it at first...just because we have the staffing and the aircraft that would be able to take on the flying pretty much immediatley. But over time, Delta will divy it up among the other DCI carriers and ultimately we'll end up with less flying than we have now.
Expressjet is losing money on their branded flying. I see them taking some of those ERJs, if not all, have them painted in Delta colors..and then take over a lot of the old Freedom flying..maybe even open up a JFK base.

I would like to see Comair, Express Jet, Mesaba, and AWAC get the flying, or if a merger should ensue, the same. Hope you guys' conference call goes well.
So when aComair F/A get onboard, does your W&B go to hell?

We have to be really careful when we call her, cause when she walks back up front the A/P might kick off cause of the CG shift and the trim not being able to keep up with it
