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....

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.

Pdub -

Go call FOX news to cry about it.

I had a Mesa guy on the jumpseat last week on his way home. We were boarded up at the gate, door closed ready to push back when the gate agent came running down the jetbridge waving her arms. We opened the door again only to find out that crew tracking at mesa had called directly to the gate to ask her to not let this guy on board because they wanted to junior man him for the next day. Wow... now that's crew tracking...

WTF OVER!
 
MESA gave me the power of free my soul!!!
 
Was she hot?
 
I love Mesa!
 
Let's hear about your first sexual experience.........

Laquishawanda.... dayum she sounds hawt!

lol
 
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:
 
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.
