BTW--- it's funny to me that so many of you idolize Delta, but sure don't seem to fit their culture when you talk about stuff like this. I dare you to show up to a Delta flight in jeans and expect to get a cabin seat while jumpseating. That would not be tolerated over there by most any captain.

I know you used Delta as your example here, but at my last airline I had a UAL 747 captain show up to our jumpseat in jeans, tennis shoes, and a hawaiian shirt. Our captain didn't care and it was a non-issue. I would never do it and I think it's wrong, and IAW our FOM probably wouldn't allow it on my flight deck at JB if I were a CA. but it's not just JetBlue deviants who think its ok.
