Suggestions Anyone on Jumpseat to Germany???

If you get in a jam you can also try the freight guys. I know Gemini Air Cargo goes from JFK to both Frankfurt and Cologne.

UAL have been fantastic for International Jumpseat (OMC) out of ORD. Just don't forget to bring a token of appreciation for the crew in the form of chocolates or something indulgent. I usually go to the Duty Free at ORD with my jumpseat pass and get about $50 worth of candies or chocolates.
After all, they are taking you for free and those first and biz class seats sure are nice on an 8 hour+ flight.

That's certainly a nice gesture but I don't think any of us expect any of our jumpseating guests to drop 50 bucks in chocolates or anything else for that matter!
