You don't schedule jumpseats in advance; you show up and hope that there are open seats in back, you're the only one requesting the cockpit JS or have priority over other interested people. Priority depends on what company you work for, what airline you are trying to jumpseat on, and your DOH.
Thanks for the info.
In regard to the commuter clause, how does a commuter prove on paper that he had a flight scheduled that he was going to jumpseat on, but when he showed up the flight was full or he didn't have the priority to get on? Is it best to just use a pass that can be hard scheduled? Can passes even be hard scheduled or are they also space-A?
