When I spoke with Sheri Hudson during the phone interview she made it sound like this was true. However, from what I see here on the forums it sounds like it is only a jumpseat agreement.
Secondly, most airlines who provide their employees with flight benefits allow for unmarried individuals to have a designated flying "partner" who can also utilize the privileges to ride as a non-revenue/standby passenger. Does Ameriflight offer such priviliges?
Thanks guys/gals!
We can jumseat on Southwest and you typically call before you show to list yourself on the flight then check in with the gate agent to list for the jumpseat. If there is space in the back you will get a seat in the back, if not you will have to sit in the jumpseat.
Ameriflight has no flight benifits.
Since Ameriflight is CASS approved you may be able to fly or jumpseat on other airlines, but it depends on the airline and if the captain is willing to accept you.
Good luck in training!
