I’m actually happy they sent this out. That will bring American, Delta and Alaska into the mix.
We could honestly be looking at the very turning point where OO goes from the largest regional to begging for scraps when all the big boys management teams decide they need more control over their flying and start cutting OO flying.

united, republic, and skywest reps/mgmt are in a meeting as we speak on the issue, and will hopefully have a resolution by midnight EDT

Not surprised... have a feeling this will be over before it actually happens. Happy that OO and YX pilots spoke up enough to get their respective representation groups to go back to the negotiating table.

An agreement?? So United wants you to agree to the same “agreement” and you say no. It was NOT an agreement. They (Delta) told you how it was going to be and you agreed. You act like it was a negotiation. So again I ask. Why is it different when United asks you to sign the same agreement as Delta and you tell United to GTFOH and start a JS war.

It’s not us starting this. I promise you that. Get you mec to talk to the other groups. I would bet it would get solved. You guys won’t get over the fact that we get benefits on other carriers because we fly for them. Fine, if that’s your stance then so be it. I’m clearly not going to be able to show you a different perspective. I cannot speak on behalf of the delta priority because I simply don’t know. Call your mec...let’s get it fixed. I’m the last guy that wants a Jumpseat war, trust me. And like I said earlier today. I would still make sure you get a first class seat tomorrow if it were open regardless of the Jumpseat disagreement. I have and will alway go out of my way for a commuter. And as for me 20 year old car...not old enough. It turned 50 this year and is completely restored.

I called and talked to the JS committee chair and told him not to budge a GD inch. Especially after hearing all we are asking you to sign is the same GD agreement you have with Delta. I’m truly glad you jumped off your high horse. I hope for your sake you stay off that thing for the forceable future. If this is true that United is asking you to sign an agreement almost identical to the one you signed with Delta, then what leg or voice do you have to stand on? It’s called precedence.
