True. Just figured they would've restricted their travel to only be in the cabin.A lot of pilots still have to commute, I can’t imagine they could operate without allowing it.

JBU requires that you prelist also by calling their scheduling office. I actually prefer this because they give you a confirmation code which you can put in the JBU app and it gives you a QR code boarding pass as if you were a paying passenger, which also includes your TSA pre-check symbol (if you're a member).Even if you’re on an approved FAM, the only ones we prelist for right now are cargo and AAL.
I just go to the ticket counter and have them look me up in the system. They print you a fake boarding pass that gets you through security then you go to the counter at the gate and do the normal bs.JBU requires that you prelist also by calling their scheduling office.

That way you can show up like 10 mins prior to boarding and breeze through security instead of standing there at the regular podium for 45 mins like a jerkoff waiting for the TSA supervisor to stop looking at you like a terrorist with your handwritten Crayola ticket and hella official laminated "let me in the fucking cockpit" card.
Good to know. Never flown on them but the Airbus is the most comfortable narrow body jumpseatJBU requires that you prelist also by calling their scheduling office.

Bro I will never, ever FDT on a B737 again. JFK-SJU in a B737, worst 4 hours of my life.Good to know. Never flown on them but the Airbus is the most comfortable narrow body jumpseat
I’ve done the 737 exactly one time. And it was only an hour-ish flight. The MD88 was more comfortable. By far the best experience was the 747. But I will go out of my way to get on an AirbusBro I will never, ever FDT on a B737 again. JFK-SJU in a B737, worst 4 hours of my life.
Business class upgrade (CAPTAIN KICKED ME OUT OF THE COCKPIT FOR ALL YALL FAA SNITCHES OUT THERE) LAX-JFK on a DAL A330 was fucking glorious tho.
I pick Airbus whenever possible, the jumpseat on an A320 is more comfortable than even the B767 I think.
Where the fuck did you FDT on a 747 lolI’ve done the 737 exactly one time. And it was only an hour-ish flight. The MD88 was more comfortable. By far the best experience was the 747. But I will go out of my way to get on an Airbus
Yep, EWR-SFO. It was like only a few months old too. Totally awesome and the crew had great overnight storiesAnyone done a 78?
A few times DFW-LAX, two Almost full size observer seats, room for your carry on in the flight deck, quiet planes.Anyone done a 78?
They’re still doing gating criteria? We should reopen for tours at this point. We are a publicly funded building and the public should get to observe if they wantIt falls under Technical Training so anyone having to do with training really. From what we’ve been told, it hasn’t even been brought up yet. I’ve also heard whispers that once some more restrictions are lifted (i.e., gating criteria, in-person tours, etc) FDT would fall back in line.
Yes.They’re still doing gating criteria?
What does it gate at this point?Yes.
Whether or not your facility gym can be open.What does it gate at this point?
Our facility has a gym but no shower. What is the point? Workout during the shift and be sweaty, no. Workout after work and be gross all for my ride home, no. PointlessWhether or not your facility gym can be open.
It should be the first priority. What’s more important? Contract is done for six years, no NATCA national elections to worry about, infrastructure bill is now done, Covid restrictions are out and everyone is on BWS. I would call this a high priority considering everything.Not even joking because I already know it’s a last priority, but who can we needle to get this thing back in action?

You'd be suprised-a few airlines will still let you flash and dash.I know but we can’t just show up to the gate and jump seat like everyone else in CASS can
