Well, that is what Ground Ops (Ops Agent) will tell you, but as we know, the airplane and jumpseat belong to the Captain. If the Captain directs the jumpseater to “take a seat, we‘ll let you know if we need you”, you know, as usual, then you can expect to ride in the cabin, aisle or window.
This does mean, though, IF AT THE CAP, jumpseaters or no jumpseaters, non-revs will not be boarded. Thus, if you are commuting, if it looks tight, list for the jumpseat.
