The problem with your last statement is that it applies to quite a few captains too.

So if you had 7, 8, 900 hours and a regional offered you a job back then, you wouldn't have taken it?

I'm not making excuses for these guys.....just saying.

If I check in 30 seconds before a 777 captain for AA, I would get on the AA flight first, when NON REVING. You can not beat that.
Rick, I'm 99% sure that AA crew have priority over AE crews when non-reving on American flights. A couple of months ago I was bumped by an AA dispatcher of all people and I was there LOOONG before he was. Various gate agents have also refused to give me the JS on AA until the last second because, "an American pilot may show up..."

It works the other way as well...on Eagle flights we have priority over AA crews.

Hey! Glad to see your still around BTW. Are you on the line yet?


Also to answer your question, I was talking about D2, ie NON REVING. When it comes to the FDJ, your correct, AA its seniority on AA, AE its seniority on AE, and on AA, AE gets it over any other Offline and visa versa.

You're an F'ing idiot, plain and simple. Oh, you also cross dress and wish you were female.

Boy its easy to turn thoughts into reality in this forum! So, let me educate you. I applied to Eagle, Colgan and Express. Colgan called first, I interviewed and liked what I heard regarding the change that was about to take place and in fact has. Eagle and Express called me for an interview while in Systems with 9L. Needless to say, I graciously declined. Never interviewed at Eagle or Express. But according to you I was declined so must be true. Therefore, my previous statement holds validity.

Great another troll has joined the board. You used to not be a huge dbag. I see after a little time on the line that you've got a massive chip on the shoulder now.

Hmm. If you are talking about Jumpseat priority, then yes, AA pilots have priority over AE pilots on their aircraft, and AE has priority on AE aircraft.

As for every other classification, it all boils down to pass classification - not which division one works for.

If a crewmember or dispatcher is traveling on company business, that person travels on an A pass and has a higher (much higher) classification than a standard D2 or D1 pass traveler.

Within the D2 (or D1 or D3 for that matter) classification, all AA and AE employees are considered equal and are grouped in the order that they check in for the flight.
