Pinnacle JS'er in DUB

Pinnacle JS'er in UK

Pinnacle jumpseater in the UK requests jumpseat.

Captain goes to bat for you and sees if it's ok to put you in business. Ops said, "no problem" but it was obvious that they didn't want to.

You meet us at the gate and let the captain know you were there.

We board and we look for you on the plane to make sure you were in Business class, but.......uuuhhh.....where are you?

Ops pages and pages and pages you.

We're late anyway, but we MUST FIND YOU. There's no way a jumpseater would just leave without saying anything. Right?

Nah, you left to run over to Delta's flight to ATL without saying anything.

Priceless!!!!

Sorry dude.. Every airline has a few ****************************** bags. If you have his name, give it to your JS coordinator and have him get in touch with ours. The union is actively trying dealing with the few people ruining things for the rest of us.

Sorry. Most 9E pilots are not this dumb. Thanks for the effort.

This email goes to our ALPA Jumpseat Committee. [email protected]

Please let them know who it was so it doesn't happen again.

I'll shoot you guys an email about the details. Each time we do this kind of BS, it hurts everyone.

I beg to differ. Most are the same with old, highly wrinkled yellowed shirts and strange personalities.

Perhaps more than there should be, but not MOST.

I am sure it was a typo but DUB is not in the UK.
and yes he should have had the decency to let you know.

I agree also, but in his/her defence, maybe the gate agent made it seem like he wasn't getting on, etc for some reason. I find it hard to believe someone would just go to another flight just for the fun of it. There has to be a reason. If not, then yes, that individual needs to be educated.
