I mean it's literally 2 threads below this on the front page of this forum...
Current procedure, subject to change, is if you sign up for the jumpseat you will be on the jumpseat unless the captain/csa/ops agent assign you a seat just prior to push. Jumpseaters can preboard but can't take a seat like olden times. If you're assigned a seat when signing up for the jumpseat, you may or may not be able to preboard, depending on who is working the gate.
Again, subject to change, negotiations are ongoing.
