My first mesa experience ;(

[pgcfii2002]

Let's hear about your first sexual experience.........

 

[Lazy8]

That's not how we roll at ASA. If I was the one trying to deadhead on that flight and boarded only to find the airplane full, I would have simply walked off the plane, waited for it to leave and then call scheduling and ask, "WTF?"

This is how the phone call would go....

ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring ring

CS: Scheduling, this is Laquishawanda, can you hold?
Me: Sure.

5 mins later

CS: scheduling, whachu need?
Me: uh....I need a hotel room because my DH left without me.
CS: Huh? Where are you?
Me: Is this a trick question? I'm at the airport in LAX.
CS: You're supposed to be DH'ing on flight xxxx.
Me: (trying to suppress my laughter) Yeah, I couldn't get on.
CS: But you were positive space.
Me: Yeah, I couldn't get on.
CS: Whachu mean?
Me: Nevermind. I'm going back to the hotel. Call me when you guys figure something out.

She probably got a PHAT A$$ and works at "Magic City"

The gate attendant comes back on board and asks for a volunteer to get off the plane and they will give them a free roundtrip ticket, freee hotel , blah blah blah. they get one volunteer, that volunteer goes off board, and the deadhead gets on. problem solved right? wrong

Yeah just what I'd want, a free ticket from Mesa so I could do it all again. And I bet that hotel would be just lavish....:laugh:

 

[Av8rPHX]

Sounds like a typical Mesa issue, but I remember when I was there, on average about 45% of the time DH's wouldnt be properly listed, there would just be a generic listing like pilot/insertnamehere with no confirmed seat assignment. It always seemed to happen around peak travel times, or when the flights were oversold by 5-10 pax.

 

[whaleroast]

I never had an issue jumping on them, the gate agents and crew were always fine.
But I am an attractive person. That goes a long way.

 

[svcta]

I motion for the f/a working this flight to come over, tell her that I am also a pilot

BWAAAHAHAHAHAHA!! Oh, man...ahhh...that's a good one. Phew....Well, have to clean up the coffe on my keyboard now. Maybe a little puke mixed in, too. Dang.

cmon dont tell me you havent tried this tactic before . I had my pilot license blown up and put on a t-shirt. I wear it out to bars, by the way ladies I also make 30 large a year and have a holiday inn priority club account.

Don't forget to mention that sometimes you throw darts at the hotel counter to multiply your Holiday Inn points for the night.....you know, because you're a gamblin' man. Risk taker....with ice water in the veins.

 

[vballindaytona]

and.........here is where the threads contents gets changed by kids. thanks for the educated replys guys, was curious about some of the 121 stuff.

 

[svcta]

So how was you being a "pilot, too" supposed to matter? One could easily say, "Hey, toots, I need to be at work in a few hours. I gonna make it?"

 

[The_Russian]

I'm gonna have to agree. None of us want to hear any "peanut gallery pilot" input from the back. We have a job to do, and we will do what it takes to get it done. Especially since we are unsure of your qualifications or position.

Nothing personal.

BTW. The Captain should have spoke up and informed the pax why they were being delayed if he didn't.

 

[dollacrackho]

Hey man thats the way the cookie crumbles on flightinfo.com. The thread can stay on topic only so long then as it loses its steam it deteriorates into something along the lines of mesa sucks nuts or gojet pilots give BJ's to donkeys, something of that nature. I beleive its called the law of entropy or something like that. Einstein proved it along time ago with a bunsen burner and a couple of test tubes.

[Oakum_Boy]

Why do people insist on working there?

 

[BcPilot99]

Maybe I cant add, but how did the plane have 50ppl on it and be full? I thought the crj 900 had like 84 seats??????
