No this isn't a cheesy Higlander Ref...Got left behind in my hometown trying to commute into DFW when a Jet Blue dude beat me out by like 1 minute. Just walked in behind him. My dumb luck. But the SAAB had only 10 people on board. Yesterday I got left behind in DFW trying to get home(more dumb luck) due to a weight restriction. The Crew was super cool about it and delayed the pushback trying to make it work so I could sit back there in one of the empty seats. But it didn't work. Of course if i were allowed in the jumpseat, I wouldn't even be posting this message. My company's unofficial policy is that we will take as many as we have empty seats. Of course only our own pilots or partners can ride in the cockpit jumpseat. Is there any plan to remedy this problem? Perhaps a Jumpseat ID card in the works? And does anyone know if UPS, FredEx or any of the other cargo airlines plan to open the jumpseat anytime soon? Open forum guys. Let's hear your opinions.
