As a FLL commuter, I would say I ride the jumpseat 95% of the time, regardless of the time of day I commute to EWR. The flights seem to be open until the night before, then a lot of seats are dumped on the internet sites and flights fill up rather quickly. One of the good things about FLL though, is that the majority of commuters list (and actually show up) so you pretty much know where you stand. The agents there are super and go the extra mile for commuters. As far as slow times? That probably happens 15-20 days a year.......pretty much a fluke. Just wait, you'll see!!!
Their always seems to be something going on down here.
