If you see it call dispatch and discuss. They will get USAirways ops on the phone and pull them off the flight. This is NOT APPROVED. I did it, took a delay of approx 50 mins going PHL to MKE with 2 Republic FA's "deadheading" to cover a Midwest Express flight from MKE-LAS the next morning.
USAirways was pissed and this went up to some pretty high levels because I got a phone call about it sometime around 2 weeks later. Give it a shot. They will get removed 100% of the time. They have NO business deadheading to MKE out of PHL. Speak up, it is the only way to make it stop.
Call was between our crew, our dispatch, republic scheduling AND USAirways operations in Pittsburgh. Long story short, we got three nonrevs on and left the Republic FA's behind. USAirways was pissed. Our dispatchers did a great job getting the right people on the phone. Nice when a plan comes together.
As a RAH pilot, I applaud you. Seriously, no flame. This place is such bull********************.
