Check-in
* For space-available (or "standby" or "subload") personal travel, employees may check in up to four hours before departure at an airport ticket office. To allow for added security procedures, employees must check-in no later than 60 minutes for domestic travel and 90 minutes for international.

* Employees should contact AA at 1-888-WE-FLY-AA, Option 3, to have their reservation record updated with the special service request.
* Employees traveling with a battery-powered wheelchair or requiring therapeutic oxygen should contact American reservations in advance of travel to allow for preparation in accommodating the wheelchair or oxygen.
* Requests for therapeutic oxygen will require an accompanying doctor's statement.
Ticketing
* Tickets must be issued by your employing carrier. American will not reissue tickets for employees of other airlines (or their eligible travelers).
* American will, however, provide rerouting assistance under the following conditions:
- The fare paid for the ticket held by the traveller is at a fare equal to or higher than the fare applicable for the new routing
- The ticket holder is eligible for travel under the conditions applicable between the "employing" carrier and American.
- The new market is from the same country as originally ticketed.
* If a ticket is used in an alternate market (eg ticketed DFW-EZE/zone 7, but used DFW-SCL/zone 6), the traveler will forfeit any excess service charge, tax, fee or other charge that was ticketed on the coupon(s) used.
* American will accept infants, on a space-available basis, in approved safety seats only if ticketed at the applicable child fare.
Unaccompanied minors
* American will not accept unaccompanied children under the age of five.
* Unaccompanied children between the ages of five and 14 will be accepted on non-stop flights only (subject to availability), at a charge for each sector.
* Children between the ages of 15 and 17 are discouraged from unaccompanied space-available travel on connecting or multi-stop itineraries because of the possibility of being removed from flights en route to accommodate revenue passengers. Final acceptance will be at the discretion of the manager on duty at the originating city.

AA or Eagle? I've never heard of issues getting on either really (beyond ERJ weight restriction issues). My friends at ASA, Republic, Pinnacle, Mesa and Air Whiskey all use AA weekly....no problems.
I know I have never left a jumpseater behind. If there was a seat in the back or a jumpseat open the jumpseater got a ride. I head up to the terminal after the post flight 70% of the time (food/facilities/scheduling). If I see someone not with my airline wearing a uniform or clearly displaying an airline badge I will at least talk with them and let them know I will talk with the Captain. I've never had a Captain have an issue with a jumpseater.

Possible Subversive
I've had a couple of surly gate agents JS on AA and Eagle and there is of course I've gotten bumped numerous times going out of DFW. Especially the DFW-SAT flights on the MD80, very packed. But never had any problems aside from just the normal problems associated with jumpseating.
I've even gotten upgraded to first a few times on American. I remember one time the Captain looked at my Mesa badge and said 'damn, son.... go in the lav, change out of your uniform and we'll comp you a drink. You probably need it.'

AA was a great airline for me to jumpseat on from ATL-DFW-PSP and back. No problems whatsoever. Very accomodating. I found it weird that they gave me a seat as a jumpseater prior to any communications with the Captain. I guess it's just buyer-beware and I introduced myself to the CA as the "potential" jumpseater anyways.
Thank you AA!
Thank you AA!

Displaced... again.
Nega-tivo... I take them every week to and from LA... the only thing that they really care about on both ends of my commute is that I called and listed myself. The gate agents don't like making those extra keystrokes. So, just list yourself beforehand and you won't have any problems. (limited hours on the listing number so you might have to call the night before for a early am flight) The only challenge is that they board you dead last and overhead spoace is sometimes a challenge on all of their equipment since 'bag fees' became the norm. Once I'm on the plane it's always a great experience.

You might be a small percentage of issues. I use them between JFK-MCO and vice versa and everyone from the Crew to the gate agents have been very nice.
