I don't think Miami Air is CASS. I assume relocation to Miami is a must. Or do other carriers allow jumpseaters from Miami Air?

It also looks like a type rating is required.

Of course you can jumpseat at with others if you work at Miami Air, they are 121 yah know, and have plenty of reciprocal jumpseat agreements. im sure you could work out a commutable line if you managed to get in there, throw a resume at them, whats the worst that could happen?

Great, the GIA guy loves it, what else do you need to know? Low pay and Eastern SCABS. Sounds grrrrreat!

As far as I know no type is required. I understand a three year training contract is, and the pay is around $35k to start. I have not worked there but I've worked at other small companies and the problem in that kind of environment is the intense politics. Work someplace with hundreds of pilots and you're just a number, nobody will be gunning for you.

I saw one of their 737-800s in Kigali, Rwanda, about two months ago. What was it doing there?
