Sure, our fuel loads are usually around 10,500 lbs. (no alternates) with an average MFPTW of around 73,750 which means we can take 11,500 lbs. and still not reduce our ZFW. With a BO of well under 7000 lbs. that leaves around 3500 upon landing and with a ZFW of 62,300 and a MLW of 67,000; I see absolutely no issues with taking a jumper

Breakdown:

70 Pax X 190 lbs = 13,300
Say 3500 lbs in bags
10,500 lbs in fuel
BOW of around 44,600
44,600 + 3500 + 13,300 = a ZFW of 61,400 (900 lbs under MZFW)
61,400 + 10,500 (fuel) = 71,900 which is 1800+ under our average MFPTW

Hope that helps and welcome on board.
