It looks like the answer is "yes", but do offline pilots still have unlimited jumpseats on JB?
Yes. That policy has not changed......yet. More and more JetBlue pilots are getting fed up with other carriers leaving us at the gate while they depart with empty seats and yet their pilots enjoy unlimited jumpseating on us. There is no official or unofficial movement to demand exact reciprocity, but the grumbling is sloooowly getting louder. Time will tell.

I just had to buy an ID90 (Not a Pass and expensive) in ATL for Delta commuting home. Talked to the CA before purchasing the ticket, no dice. An Airtran guy was first and the 737-800 had 83 seats open.
FLL-ATL had 4 jumpseaters (2 gulfstream, 1 united and me JB). Thanks for the ride to that capt (explained he was a commuter). I support charging Delta pilots after the first 2 jumpseater(A320) OR 1 Jumpseat(E190) is taken. True Recip agreement! Thanks to ALL the other airlines for joining the UNLIMITED jumpseat policy.
Quick note: I had the privilege of jumping on UAL out of ORD for a month (nice break from the Delta commute). The UAL guys are great and thanks for making that commute so easy on your TED aircraft.
So what do you suggest Sail???
Should that DL pilot who left you behind break the rules out of his Flight Ops Manual??? We as pilots don't make the rules, we follow them. Grow up and act like someone who's jumpseated before unlimited......If it's full, MOVE ON.
Delta pilots couldn't even jumpseat on their OWN airplane until 1996......if you don't like the setup, then get with your touchy-feely pseudo-union study group and change it to exactly what you recommended.......odds are more JB people would lose out on rides then Delta.
Better yet, save your strength for the Transcon changes you people are crying about changing......you are going to need it!!!!
Bill,
I was sooooo wrong!
I just read some of your past post. (1996 was quoted again? Do we have I love the 90's hang ups?)
I was so wrong.... You ARE a @ick!
