Atlas Air Jumpseating

You can fill out the information on the website and submit it to the company, and then call our Jumpseat Desk to confirm your request and get updated schedules. Please allow 48 hours before planned travel date to submit your request, but heard it can be done in as little as 24 hours.

If going to Australia, the company requires that you have a valid passport and a visa (ETA) for entry. The usual trips are: HNL-SYD, HNL-AKL-MEL , we do not usually operate back to HNL from SYD. From SYD we usually go to SYD-PER, SYD-PVG or SYD-HKG.

I hope you find this information useful, see attached link for further information:

You for got to mention, even though Atlas gives you a "positive space ticket" from your Gateway, they consider it income and tax you on it. That sucks and we at Polar have, so far, resisted that crap.
 
Fussy, How did the polar pilot group resist the tax on tickets? What did your pilot group or union do on this matter? The way I see it, management, with the polar base setup in JFK, can not make a case for taxing the travel tickets on the polar side of the business. Although the reasoning the compnay uses to explain the taxing issue on the Altas travel is stupid, they still do it to the atlas people. But that's all, nothing you or your union did. On the other hand, they charge the polar pilots the tax on the reserve hotel in JFK. So here is something you and your union should work on instead of pointing fingers at the Atlas pilots. Like it is their fault that they get forced to pay the tax on tickets. In all reality, it is time for Atlas and Polar guys and girls to get together and to focus on our future as a mergered entity. Unity makes strong. Please, don't make it sound like your group or union is better in dealing with management. The only thing that makes us better is working together as equal partners.
