I have to respectfully disagree here. When you stated he was DAL that pretty much summed it up. Hands down the biggest snobs in the industry when it comes to jumpseating (at least on my DAL Conx carrier). Granted, not all of them are like that, but truly nice and professional ones are the exception not the rule.
I love comments like this....Hey sport, relax, not all DL pilots are out to be snobs! Maybe its your charming personality that turns them off!

FWIW, our ops man states the jumpseater is encouraged, but not required, to check in with the captain when riding in the back.
Well, since you're not the captain, then don't worry about it sparky!

wow, touch a nerve there pylt? i'm very relaxed and i said not all of them are like that. didn't you read my post? you must have a lovely personality yourself to want to make comments like that. what does my not being a captain have to do with anything? other than providing you another opportunity to make one of your typical childish comments?

Yes I did, and here it is again, just so YOU can remember what you posted...

Checking the jumpseating persons credentials is the responsibility of the cpt.

The response was as appropriate as the post was!

Anaconda,

Don't get yourself worked up over this Delta clown. He's just a whinning wimp to anyone who has something negative to say about his bankrupt airline.

Hey einstein....This is a discussion between pilots. If I need any advice on serving coffee, I'll solicit your f/a opinion! Now back to your trailer!

Sounds like a pack of "lame" Chihuahas. Just a lot of yapping. Delta goes thru some bad times and the rejects start piling on.

Yep, just the way I thought you would respond. Speaking of trailers, shouldn't you be out looking at some?

When jumpseating I always ask and bring cookies (time permitting).

When I have a paid ticket, I don't stick my head in the cockpit. If every Fedex pilot did that, NWA would be shut down in MEM every Monday morning!

There's always that 2% that just can't seem to follow the rules or do the right thing. I have them at my company, you have them at yours.

Try not to get you panties in a wad..

USNFDX is right. Yesterday on my NW flight to IND there were 29 FedEx pilots booked on the flight. I'm sure more than half deviated and took different routes to get to IND, but that is still a lot of FedEx pilots on just that one flight.

All on paid tickets, some in uniform some not. I don't think anybody checked in with the flight crew, that Monday morning wave would never get airborne if we all stopped in to say hey!


All kind of off the subject, but interesting to me at least.

Thanks to everybody who offers us jumpseats.

Whimp huh? Kinda like the little girl constantly registering new user accounts and throwing stones while hiding behind a computer!

I'm sure you know a lot about trailers chuck/einstein/boris! Now get away from daddy's keyboard and back in your playpen, its nap time little girl!
 
Lastly, JB has one of these finest jumpseat policies in the business, please dont abuse us, or treat us like proverbial red headed stepchildren. (sorry if youre a redhead.)

It's a good thing you have the finest JS policy, because I'm sure your pilots take many more rides than they give, due to the JFK base and your very limited route structure. In fact, if not for the JS, I'm guessing JB could not exist in its current form.

There is still no excuse to not say hello to the CA if the guy was jumpseating but please don't brag about that liberal JS policy like it's sheer generosity. I'm certain JB knew they would need a high percentage of commuters in order to run a NYC base.

By your spelling and lack of intelligence, I'm not one bit surprised you know who those people are. Now back to bed wetting and sleeping with the light on in the trailer!

With that statement I guess your of the same opinion with CAL and EWR? Or any other airline who has bases that people don't live in? You obviously don't commute do you? Since you don't have any idea about who J/S's on us, or why, then you should keep your comments to yourself. I happen to have taken many more OAL pilots to or from JFK than our own.
