I have a question about the proper etiquette involved in jumpseating vs. deadheading. I know that if you JS, you should always politely ask the captain for a ride whether you sit in the front or back. But do the same rules apply to a deadhead leg your scheduling dept. has put you on? Is it necessary or expected that you still ask the captain for a ride?

The reason I ask is that I just finished my sim training and have been released to IOE, and my first day involves a DH from my base to another. Since I've never jumpseated or deadheaded before, I just want to be sure I don't accidentially do something rude on my first day! Thanks in advance for your input.
