14 CFR §121.547 is the controlling regulation. It says that in order for a person to gain access to the flight deck, that person must have the permission of:
1) The Admiistrator, and

2) The Certificate Holder, and

3) The Pilot in Command
Permission is required by all 3. Permission can be denied by any one. The Pilot in Command is one who can deny permission.

If the Captain says, "No", the jumpseater don't go.

Period.


So, what were you saying about The Company dictating over the Captain?
