JethroF15 said:Effective 1 April crewmembers of other airlines will be allowed to jumpseat on
FedEx aircraft within the United States as part of the Cockpit
Access Security System (CASS) program. This is a reciprocal program where
FedEx crewmembers will be allowed to jumpseat on other participating carriers.

JethroF15 said:Was at the FedEx ALPA meeting during the hub turn last night. Dave Webb was asked about the email that went to all the ramp agents (ref above email). He said that he had read it but that the company had not made any contact with the Union concerning CASS starting April 1st. He also addressed the requirement for the digital picture. He said that, as far as he knew, UPS, American, Alaska, and Gemini, were already on line with the photo and that United was working to turn it on very soon. He did talk about how JL had told him that a pilot from a non-photo CASS airline could get his photo into the FedEx system one time and then be "good to jumpseat" from that point on. I'll wait to give the details as he stated it had to be ironed out. For what it's worth.
