However, as one of those captains who goes up and checks the nature of jumpseaters/non-revs, I will say that if I see an offline pilot jumping on a flight where it is going to be full, but family and friends are getting on, it will not be pretty for the ASA pilot who is going to bump the offliner simply to avoid the service charge. Not pretty at all. Nuff said.
What were you saying about vigilante justice again?
Stand up and remove the stick from your a$$. Those "pathetic RJ captains" have just as much control over you getting on their plane, as you do on your big ol' Delta jet. Chances are if you're going somewhere, you just might have to talk to some "little RJ captain".
