Default Atlas Jumpseat to Leipzig

I'm looking to jumpseat to and from Leipzig, Germany (LEJ) on Atlas.
Is there a way to look up dates and times for departure? And also, can you jump both ways, i.e. United States to Germany and return?

Thanks!

Thanks. Do you know where Kalitta flies from and how I list for both directions?

They fly out of cvg. Look on the website for the phone number and just tell who answers you want an offline jumpseat and you should get to right place. Pretty comfy ride if on the BCF.

Just out of curiosity, why in gods name do you want to go to Lej?

I'm trying to get to Berlin to meet up with the wife. I know United goes out of EWR, I'm just worried about not getting on the flight. Plus, I'm not sure about coming back. Thought it might be easier jumping on a cargo carrier. I could be wrong though...

Here is the flight list:

Polar Air Cargo

Go to the site below to list for an Atlas jumpseat. They will get back to you with info about whether there is room and such. No problem going both ways, just make sure you talk to them about where to go in LEJ and how to get to the airplane.

Atlas Air, Inc.

yeah taking the freighter is a nice way to go....keep in mind though they will typically get in at night, and most likely no trains available to Berlin so you will have to spend the night in Leipzig or Halle. On the way back however, the flight will leave in the evening so easy to take the train. Will get in to CVG at nite, but could jump on a DHL flight to wherever home is.

I think maybe once a week there will be flight getting in during the day, so if possible use that.

good luck
