Does this apply to "cockpit jumpseaters" who are sitting in the back? I have tried to pre-board a few times, and was told to get to the back of the line. And a couple of times, I have been allowed to pre-board but got the stink eye.
Conversely, I have also been told to pre-board when I got my boarding pass, and a seat in the back.
So it seems to be all over the map. Would be nice to know what the official policy is, if I am jumpseating but have a seat in the back.
I use SW a lot and I am always treated great! Thank you!
