International Jumpseat Question
Hey all. I’m looking to jumpseat to Korea, and I called the jumpseat desk and they said I can. However, they said they didn’t know how it would work on arrival in Korea. I know that passengers are required to take a covid test on arrival right now. Have any of you had a jumpseater to ICN recently? Any idea how it might work for me on arrival? Thanks!

Just curious, what is it like jumpseating? Decent enough seats? Room to lay down? Any food?

An individual not being operating crew, not being repositioned to operate, better yet not even employed by the company in question….that’s a passenger.
Walk right through with the crew? Maybe.
Then again, maybe not.

We do not carry passengers (with rare exceptions), and we do not have passenger manifests. You are a crew member.

I am technically not a DH, though, since it’s for leisure travel. But my fingers are crossed that I’ll ended up listed on the gen dec because that would definitely make things easier!
Was that person you had a DHer or an OA JS?
Thanks for all the help guys, really appreciate it!!

The guy we took was a Delta FO that had a girlfriend out in Korea, and he was on the gendec as a DHer
