So don't demean this guy for asking- there's some sleazy stuff going on out there anymore. Personally I'm proud of our jumpseater-friendly policy and culture here and only hope it continues...but never underestimate the greed and shortsightedness of airline executives...
Random question. Are all Spirit employees, whether FAs, gate agents, rampers, etc. allowed to check/carry-on bags for free when they non-rev? At Delta for example, employees non-revving are allowed to check 2 bags free.
And yes, Spirit is awesome to jumpseat on!
