It’s a real thing.
Not dogging you here.
I flew regionals( back then AKA "commuters") flew ACMI and jumpseated either online or offline for 30+ years.
When the Captain welcomed me to ride on the JS or in the back, it was all the "respect" I needed, and I never took it for granted.
Good luck with gate agents though. Had more than a few who were not so helpful. Fly Safe.
