What are people's favorite airlines for jumpseating to Europe (with at least a chance of an upgrade)? I'm trying to get to Germany, but I can't find schedules for Kalitta, Atlas or any other ACMI besides Polar. Should I just call their jumpseat phone numbers?
Kalitta website posts a schedule. It is close to schedule, we go to Liepzig (EDDP) almost daily from CVG and most days from JFK or EWR. 24 hours ahead and you will have two meals all first class seats and even possibly a bunk to sleep in.
From Halle station or Leipzig station you can get almost anywhere.
