Piece of Trash
As far as non-rev goes, I think NWA mainline has a higher priority than Pinnacle non-revvers, even on our own planes. JS, I think we still have higher priority. JS guide is in my flight kit, and that's at the airport, so I can't look it up for sure.
MSP and DTW operations will occasionally tell gate agents "no JSers" on some flights. Basically, it's operations not wanting to delay a flight or deal with W&B issues. When I see that or hear that from a gate agent, I'll call dispatch, and they're normally "WTH? No, you can take a JSer. Who said you couldn't?" Argument ensues, flex CA muscles, JS gets on. Unfortunately, this happens a LOT in MSP. Not much we can do since Mesaba does our ground handling there.
