I am currently flying with a first officer who was wrongly denied a jumpseat in PHX on Wednesday evening. It was on a mainline (East) red-eye flight from PHX to CLT. She works for PSA and was the first person to request the jumpseat. Another PSA pilot showed up later and was given the jumpseat because he is more senior. Everyone should be aware that the cockpit jumpseat is awarded on a first come first served basis (withinn category...i.e A1/A2/A3). The exception being if the jumpseat has been reserved (mainline pilots only). I have heard from two of the pilots on the mainline jumpseat committee and they have both confirmed that this is still the policy.
I have been told that this is being administered incorrectly at some gates in CLT too.
Those of us that commute rely upon the rules being followed correctly when we plan our commutes. If you see it being done incorrectly, please try to make it right.
