Do Allegiant Air Pilot get to J/S

[your_dreamguy]

Just curious if Allegiant Air pilots have J/S benefits on other 121 carriers? I'm asking because Allegiant does not have a union. Does anybody know? Does anybody know if Allegiant Air pilot face any retaliation like Freedom pilots faced a few years ago?

G4 has J/S privileges

Forgive me if I'm not quite getting your drift here, but are you comparing a non union airline to an airline that was started as an alter ego to side step a union contract?

Now there's a good comparison, Allegiant and Freedom. Hey I got one, how about JetBlue and GoJet? What about Hawaiian and Go (or whatever that poor excuse for an airline in HI is called)?

Does any pilot group need to have union affiliation to have a J/S agreement?

It's been my experience, J/S agreements are agreed to by management ...not by the union.

-You are right, but the Captain can exclude anyone he/she wants..... No GoJet turds on my JS.

Allegiant has been a CASS participant for over a year now. Jumpseat agreements do not have anything to do with whether or not the pilot group is union or not.

Absolutely!

I don't want any CRJ/EMB-flying turds on my JS either. I'll be sure to get the jumpseat deferred or somehow interfere just to make sure those "turds" don't get on even if it takes me bribing the left seater with me picking up his tab the entire trip.

With those wages, CRJ/EMB- flying turds don't deserve any "professional" courtesy... Instead, I'll give them a coupon for McDonald's 2 Big Macs for $3, or dime-a-Ramen coupon and send them on your way...

Heheh, exactly! Politics should ALWAYS stay out of jumpseat. But good luck explaining that to CRJ/EMB "profession defenders..."

I bet if a non-union carrier was flying routes that no one else was and you needed to get somewhere I don't think you'd be turning down a ride.

Of course not... that's my point and hence the rolling eye character. crj567 stated that GoJet pilots aren't welcome on his jumpseat, and I'm here to tell him and every other idiotic "profession defender" that you DO NOT bring politics to jumpseating.

If you don't like an airline and I don't care if it's GoJet or Mesa or SWA or UAL, don't jumpseat on them... but bear in mind that if your airline has reciprocal agreement with your hated airline, by blindly denying jumpseats to pilots of a certain airline, you are screwing your fellow pilots, and I don't mean just that poor sap you leave at the gate, but primarily your own pilots who might be asking that same guy you left behind for a ride.

Seems to me that many of these "profession defenders" don't seem to comprehend that jumpseat authority is not a power trip.

The posters above seem to be a little on the slow side. For those of you that are on the slow side, he was trying to prove apoint. Hence he posted first post got response and said exactly.

GoJet is an alter-ego. About as close to being a scab as one can get. My jumpseat-my rules.... I am all about screwing ANY pilot who screws our profession-you would be to if you had any sense.

Oh, BTW-when you fly with a Captain who excludes someone from his jumpseat because he doesn't like their haircut, their manners, or just because they remind him of the toolbag F.O. he has to fly with..... THAT PERSON DOESN'T FLY!-Regardless of what you think.

-Operate the gear handle, and go make your boss a sandwich like a good little boy-the jumpseat doesn't belong to you!

-Maybe one day, when you grow up, scooter-you may get a jumpseat of your very own.... Then you will get to enforce whatever idiot ideas you have.

You must be a joy to fly with. I imagine you always fly with a crew full of slam clickers... Do you ever wonder why?
