Looks like the jumpseat order got changed.

Not only can you, you must. The only way to respond to a blanket policy is with a blanket response. I have friends at Skywest. I will deny them. I’ve written two LOR for Skywest pilots recently. I can’t fathom doing that going forward. Doesn’t mean it’ll move the needle much but there must be a unified response.

In an environment where it is ever increasingly difficult to staff a regional airline, what could be a better windfall for the company than to carefully manipulate the circumstances of this event into a way to disqualify their own employees for jobs at one of the major reasons for resignations?

On a RAH aircraft, after signed, RAH would be first, then RAH dispatchers, then all UAL/UAX, then OAL based on time of check-in.
UAL and Jumpseats

1. Own metal
2. UAL/UAL Express TOC
3. OAL.
That's what the chart that has been posted around shows, at least. I've yet to see anything official from ALPA. If someone could point in the right direciton to something that isn't just a basic Excel table screenshot, that'd be cool.

Clarification, I don't believe that's how it works. Non-exclusive carrier flights will still be:
1. Own metal
2. UAL/UAL Express TOC
3. OAL.

while it is easy to say that, history lessons taught to me by the previous generation of pilots has taught me to pay attention to details. during UAL BK when you had an awful scope Clause shoved down your throat, you were assured the CRJ 700 would be the largest 70 seater, magically they were able to add much heavier E170s because of a loophole. same with Aer Lingus flying IAD-MAD as a codeshare. loopholes should never be overlooked and unless there is official clarification I can see this is a massive loophole for the following scenario.
your commuter clause does not have a requirement to be pos space, correct? if a WB CA and an OO pilot are competing for an OO JS and united really wants that CA there because they are out of reserves they could make him a must ride on our JS. What if a chief pilot wants to take the last flight of the night and magically is able to call in and make himself a must ride. I have not seen anything OFFICIAL saying otherwise. (plenty on here but nothing from SAPA or UAL management) if SAPA has the answer and is not sharing that is on them, but right now we have not seen anything contractual that would prevent the above scenarios ( contractual between UAL and SKW, not your pilot contract). also FWIW this would be the only JS agreement we have that places any non OO employee( not a fed) ahead of any OO pilot for an OO jumpseat.

UALPA MEC or a different one? No offense if it isn't, just trying to find info from the source that is actually in control of the software. If we had access to an official document to reference, that would help clear up any misunderstandings. Instead of all this secondhand hearsay crap.

It’s not “signed”. It just has their sticker and we have been using it for years. So not signed. But still in use with an approved sticker. Like having a verbal agreement to pay rent. Or buying something from a friend but only verbally saying you will pay them. Because if it’s not signed. It does not matter.
Or when your neighbor has a driveway in your yard due to easement rights and no way to get to your house. It’s verbal. No signature.
