Curious about ya'll thoughts on this: Are crews generally ok with having their cockpit crowded up for this purpose? I know I personally would be welcoming in this situation; I mean as long as the guy was courteous etc.
You're basically jumpseating home on an earlier flight, and so you never had a scheduled deadhead on this flight, right? IMO just say "hi, I'm so and so trying to get home to XXX , could I please jumpseat and hitch a ride?"
