I'm going to start kicking fat pilots out of the jumpseat just to make them walk an extra trip up the jetbridge. They clearly need the exercise, and it if saves one life it's worth it!
Obviously I'm kidding, but see how moronic that sounds?

Like I said it's going to be a 1% thing. They're out there.

When it's YOUR jumpseat it you can 100% totally legit deny a JS to a guy who has a political bumper sticker on his bag that you don't like... obvious distraction and flight safety issue if it ****es you off. If he really wanted to ride he shouldn't have controversial, inflammatory politics on display.
That's how the JS works.

My doctor recommended I don’t get vaccinated and I don’t care if those around me are or not.

You are already required to present your medical and certificate.
Maybe I don’t want anybody to know I’m required to wear corrective lenses?

Very few people will be that anal, it's going to be a 1% thing and YOUR airline is going to have that very same 1%. But thanks for bringing it up, I hadn't thought to carry my vaccine card with my passport.
BTW it's "nip it it in the bud", I'm not sure if butt nipping is appropriate for APC, we try to keep it PG-13.

So you can potentially sit next to a pilot who isn’t vaccinated for your job. But some dude who wants a ride to work who isn’t vaccinated is out.
god speed to that dude who gets a line check with a CKA who isn’t vaccinated and an FO who isn’t.

Every airline has COVID guidance, and I suspect that guidance says that the flight deck jumpseaters are required to wear masks. This nimrod isn't free to make up his own rules, and if he requires proof of vaccination or no ride (his own rule) without regard of the mask (actual rule), then this idiot is jeopardizing his airline's jumpseat agreements. Someone, somewhere will retaliate and it snowballs from there.
His Twitter bio says it all.
