Sorry if this is old news, I tried a search with no luck.
A (quite snippy) UA gate agent told me today that only UA and Skywest pilots could sit in the cockpit JS on a UAX flight. Despite my companies participation in CASS and despite the fact that she saw my pic on the CASS website, I was out of luck. I told her I didn't understand why a CASS approved pilot could ride on UA or Skywest but not on a Skywest airplane operating as UA X. She told me that was the way it was and if I didn't understand, it was my problem. And "the flight was overbooked". Then she turned away. I lucked out and got a cabin seat, but what's the story?
The Skywest crew, cool as usual, was puzzled and annoyed when I told them about it.
Any experts out there?
