Anyone know if any of the contract cargo carriers allow offline jumpseaters?
 
Empire does, but we don't go anywhere a reasonable, and prudent person would ever want to go. Not to mention at an hour where someone would need to travel.
 
I would not go that far.

We offer the only direct service from RAP to FSD (1840 local) and FSD to RAP (0627 local), at a reasonable hour.

CWA-RST and RST-CWA (1939 and 0630) Only direct service.

We service several Alaskan cities KTN, SIT, JNU and ANC-FAI all at reasonable hours. If you're company does not have an agreement with Alaska air or you can't get on one of their flights, we may be your only option.

MAF-LBB (1955 local) the only direct service.
LBB-MAF (0620 local) only direct service.

GEG-PSC PSC-GEG (0635 and 1720)
GEG-YKM YKM-GEG (0646 and 1705)

A couple of the other runs do run at irregular hours, but I would say all those listed above are pretty reasonable.

Fokkers and Beer might think those cities are places that no prudent person would want to go, but I'd be willing to bet that many more people don't. Additionaly, we need to get the word out to the other carriers of what we DO have to offer.
 
definently don't ride if your cpt is ronguadier up to ktn cause he likes to land there with the brakes on and blow all the tires and leave huge skid marks that can still be seen to this day. i agree with fokkersandbeer no reasonable person would want to ride that long in a jumpseat. your company also needs to be 12.5 security program.
 
i think that was a hung prop and nobodies fault nowhere near as stupid as leaving the breaks on when you didn't need to put them on in the first place.

Most of the larger ones will take you. Seems as if the majority require you to call ahead, list, and do a few other things. I do not have the phone numbers available to share but sure someone else on this board can post them.
