“Hi Fellas,
Just a quick question to anyone who might be in the know. I want to jumpseat to Asia, specifically Hong Kong, with a small dog. My company doesnt allow this. Do you guys have any policy against such practice? Assuming all paperwork and requirements are met to import a pet to said country.
A few passenger airilnes do allow them in the cabin but my little guy is just 1 inch too tall and will not fit under the seat per the airline's criteria. Not sure if they'll be sticklers over this but looking around for Plan B just in case.
Thanks!“

My guess is you never got the job offer. But we'll call it a mutual breakup if it makes you feel better.

No offense, but stories of guys bringing their Mothers to their interview, FO's leaving their seat to do yoga over the Pacific with nary a word, or dudes with 20 minutes on property trying to hook up Go-Pros in a 121 cockpit may be cause for conversation. Or humor. You know, that is still a thing. To some.
