I've seen them turn people away because they're not listed, and they'll tell you to list. Buy myIDTravel won't let you if it's too close to departure time.
This is 100% wrong. They can list you at the gate up to 10 min prior. Agents turning people away is not correct. If this is happening it needs to get turned into the jumpseat committees so it can be addressed. Getting denied and just complaining here won't fix the problems if ALPA isn't made aware of it.
All Captains all need to preflight their jumpseat so pilots are not left at the gate by any airline.
