Hey all, I'm looking on listing on an Atlas flight MIA-EZE on the 21st.

I've never jumpseated with you guys so I was just wondering what the protocol was. I submit the form and I'm listed and show up? Do I ride up with the crew or is there a seating area in the back? Should I bring you guys some chocolates and snacks?

Also, is there a way to find out where the plane is coming from? I would be initially commuting from ORD, maybe I can ride from ORD with you guys all the way to EZE?

Appreciate any help, thanks!

Aircraft is coming from Santiago.

You can meet the crew at the report point:
6640 NW 22nd St
Bldg 707

There are seats in the back. Crew of 3, so lots of extra room.

I'm not on the flight, but I personally don't think gifts are necessary, but I'm sure they will be appreciated.

Safe travels.

I will add, be there 1:45 before departure, crew should be there shortly afterward. IMO no gifts necessary. I have never gotten, or expected, any.

Enjoy the ride. Do not bring any food. I think that we are one of the best kept secrets in aviation.

Allegiant has jumpseats.


Kidding obviously, enjoy the ride. Absolutely the best way to travel.

Hopping on the revived thread bandwagon here - any advice on jumpseating to China? I'm looking at going to CGO, PEK, or PVG in a few months and I've heard some horror stories regarding visas and having problems with customs. Is a regular travel visa okay? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, guys.

Hey guys,
I’m jumpseating out of MIA on 2688. I’m trying to figure out a meetup place, I know it’s somewhere at Western U. Any info would be really appreciated.
PM is ok.
Thanks.

Not sure about Atlas. But if you fly as part of crew you need crew visa for China.

Tourist visa may not work.

Might be better to jumpseat to HK and take a train to China. But again double check with jumpseat dept. at Giant.
