UPS & FDX jumpseat for OAL DXer's?

[dispatchguy]

The NWA Dispatch union controls which dispatch offices get added to their list of approved carriers for dispatchers in their FOM.

If memory serves, NWA allowed offline dispatchers who were TWU only. This was pre 9/11 though.

NWA is still the same as far as TWU being an almost automatic. NWA Will not permit AA/AAEagle to ride, because AA/AAEagle will not reciprocate, and they are represented by TWU.

I'm assuming you were given a seat in back since you are not in CASS?

your assumption is correct.

American wont pay for there dispatchers to be in CASS. If a dispatcher wants to, they have to pay all the cost.

We are TWU, code share partners, red headed step children and still we are refused! :erm:

I know a JS contact at NWA for ALPA, I'll see if he can get me the contact details to get in the NWA FOM DX JS List...
