Default FDX jumpseating out of Dulles

What is the procedure for jumpseating on FDX out of Dulles? Do I just take a cab over to the cargo area? What about listing? Is there a gate agent over there that does the paperwork?

Default FDX jump seat info.

Jump seat info: Once reservation is made just ask for the ramp address in IAD and get a cab to drop you off.

The jump seat is available to certificated flight deck crew members of airlines which participate in CASS. A reservation may be made 24 hours in advance of scheduled flight departure time and it required no later than 1 hours prior to scheduled flight departure time. There is no walk-up jump seat availability inside the one hour cutoff and ramp access will be denied without a reservation. The offline jump seat reservation number is available 24 hours per day/7 days per week: 866-357-5711. We request that you please cancel any reservation you do not intend to use. Clean, neat, casual attire is allowed: no shorts, T-shirts, or spiked heels. The number of jump seats available varies by airplane size—two on the B727 and as many as eight on the A300.

Get the phone number of the ramp from Jumpseat admin, if you can, and call to find out how to get into the building and how to find the ramp manager's office. It's much different than going to the pax terminal. No gate agent.

At Dulles the security (or someone) will escort you up to the ramp office. The ramp agents (our version of a gate agent) will sign you in: you'll need your airline ID and they will check your CASS status.

Let's be careful how much info is put out on jumpseating on a public forum.

We already know many non-pilots are on this site. Management and otherwise.

Let FedEx JS give out the info when CASS is verified.

The address is on Google maps, if you search FedEx Dulles.

The procedure of the CASS system is published on Airinc (the company that implements CASS).
