Our flight ops management understands that our reciprocal agreement is of limited benefit to many of the airlines with which we have said agreements, so we strive to make the Allegiant jumpseat as much of a “sure thing” as possible. As a result, OAL pilots can ride in the spare cabin jumpseat....provided that they make it through the gauntlet of contract gate agents and crews who don’t take the time to understand these things or are just out of practice because jumpseaters are pretty rare for us.

Considering we don’t oversell flights and the vast majority have 5-10 open, worrying about Cabin jumpseats is pretty far down the list.
Most all of our older 320s have 2 cockpit jumpseats. It’s been awhile since I flew a 319, but obviously at least one.
When I was LAX based we had a decent amount of jumpseaters from BOI and BIL it seemed. Never had anyone up front with us, as they had a seat in the back.
I’m honestly not even familiar with a cabin jumpseat. Is that an MD-80 thing?

Or you can just blatantly deny someone without even trying to get then on. Your call.

Last I checked the PIC has a GOM and a JS Manual with no ability to reference the FA Manual. Additionally most of us have a telephone with the ability to phone a member of our leadership team for any clarification.
