Default Jump seating between MIA and DTW

Guys looks like I'm going to be displaced to MIA in the near future. Trying to cover all bases for jumpseating. How does one go about jumpseating with FEDEX, UPS, DHL, Cargo company with postal contract etc. thanks appreciate the info.

There are quite a few people who do this commute already without cargo carriers and I hear it isn't that bad.

UPS doesn't have any non-stops between DTW and MIA so you'd have to connect through SDF. To check the schedule and list for the flights call the Jump Seat Desk at (800)228-CREW, option 4:1.

AA is hiring displacing pilots at the same time?

With the STL base downsizing, those displaced can flush me.

Snickers, I guess it's all relative, only 3 non-stops between aa and dl. With winter coming, I imagine snowbird traffic will be high also. Thanks to those who gave me the jumps seat numbers. Sorry to the guy who was wronged by a captain, has happened to me also, there are as""oles everywhere unfortunately, glad
it is few and far between.

Spirit Airlines to FLL, then a 1 hour, $5 train ride on the Tri-Rail down to MIA.
