Are there any carriers that will let 135 pilots jumpseat? I heard SWA and AirWhiskey..but
dont know for sure.

ATA will take all 135 guys(with appropriate credentials & company photo ID)... call the non-rev number after 9pm, list, etc,.

Southworst, your company must be on the list. Airnet & Ameriflight are only ones on list that I know of.

As long as your company is on the list then yes... A good majority of the 135 operators (atleast the ones that I am aware of) are not on regional lists that the gate agents will refer when they look... The hardest part present day would be getting past the gate agent to ask the captain to "ok" this. If your company is on the list then you should have no problems at all.

If your 135 operation is small and on no lists then you are probably limited to just being able to j/s on ATA. Obviously you can find exceptions and some loop holes if you look hard enough. It is much harder post 911 to talk a gate agent into allowing you to go down and speak to the captain to try and pull this off...

I wouldn't recommend asking for a ride with the same language you use in most of your posts here.

ATA takes 135 riders, so I imagine Chicago Express does as well.
