I'd be interested to know about heading east out of there. Any help is appreciated.

Hi Guys,
I believe we are restricted to carry only US Airline employed pilots. You would have to check with EK to see if they have made provisions for you. PPrune might be a better place to ask this as most the EK stuff is flown by the Stanstead guys and gals.

FARs require that you be employed by a FAR119 carrier. Sorry.

Too bad. It would be nice to see fewer barriers for jumpseating, globally

I agree, but remember, jumpseating is a US thing, regulated by the FAA.
