SWA Jumpseat question?

[scootertrash]

Is it required that you have your Passport with you to Jumpseat? I am getting mine renewed right now so don't have it. Can we use our drivers license or I also have my Global entry card.

Thanks for any info! This will help my commute home tomorrow.

All depends on customer agent, real answer is yes, must have it.

Although it is possible to "jumpseat" in the back (your jumpseat card will be labeled "Cabin Only") with your ID and no passport. This assumes, of course, that there's an open seat. To actually sit up in the cockpit, a passport is required under the TSA-approved program.

That's the right wing version Bubba posted.

The left wing answer is exactly the same

I hate the threads that have nothing to debate

Well that sucks! Thanks for the info!

Maybe that fee for expedited service would have been worth it!

Hell, it's a deductible business expense, if it allows you to commute easier and work more to earn more wages.

I did expedite it, just haven't gotten it yet.

Next time you could do same day passport renewal at a passport office. I brought a copy of my FOM page saying a current passport is required as proof. Made an appointment online at a passport office at 8am, paid the expedited fee, had new passport in hand by 1:30pm.

Expedite.

FWIW - the United jumpseat info on the ALPA jumpseat page says a passport is no longer required for CASS verification. Not sure about SWA.
