    All other OAL employees are to be listed as S-4 with no restrictions on first or business...but with all the free upgrades given to the mediallions on domestic flights getting first on a domestic flight is next too impossible even for DL employees on an S2 priority...
    Delta Flyer, What about codeshare OAL are they allowed to be put in first class?

    SkyTeam and Codeshare Employees - Standby only in Coach Cabin-AM/AF/JM/CZ/LY/KE/AT/SA/AZ/OK/BE/-CO/NW. If Coach is full standby next flight is required. Exception - F/J allowed only on Block Space Flights - Use S4 Priority.

    Is the listed airlines skyteam? Because my listing priority as a AS employee is S3D and AS is not in that list?

    the listed airlines are Skyteam members, if you have been told to use S3D then that limits you from first (technically) but allows you to be cleared before DL buddy pass riders...
    I just found an updated posting that reads -
    The only carriers that don't allow in the premium cabin are as follows: AM/AF/AV/CZ/LY/KE/AT/AZ/OK/CO/KL/SU/AS. However, everyone else may be listed in either class and/or cleared in either class.


    I think it kinda sucks that our own alliance and codeshare folks arent entitled to first/business - but I guess that is how the interline agreements were written in the codeshare agreements...

    I put as many people as I can in first, I know I like to sit up there and hate to see an aircraft go out with empty seats up front...
