Default AA Jumpseat Question

I am looking to jumpseat on AA on October 25 from ABQ-DFW-ATL. Can someone tell me if AA takes multiple jumpseaters?

Thanks.

Hey DAL,

Looks like DAL and AA have unlimited jumpseats (more than one), and the flight loads look good for you as of now.

Ciao,

AA

DFW-ATL is a very high commuter route. If its a morning flight show up early or you may find your behind a lot of other pilots and flight attendants trying to get on.

DAL,

What Sailing said. Also, couple other lessons from a DFW commuter. You'll need to call 800-933-5922, hit option 3 and "meal list" for the "jumpseat" (or they will think your just a nonrev). The gate agent will only have to verify CASS when you get there but they can't list you at the gate anymore.

Ferd
NWA for now

The AA guys are great with the jumpseats. DFW -ATL route UPS has a flight that departs very early, think dark, am which very rarely has any jumpseaters. 757 with four seats, leaves from NW DFW freight Facility.

I have never jumpseated with UPS before. Are there any special procedures I need to go through to do that? Thanks for letting me know about your flight.

The flight leaves at 0750GMT tuesday thru friday. You have to call UPS and list yourself via the crewscheduling , jumpseat option, your airline must be CASS .

Note: When entering UPS property your luggage will be searched, UPS policy absolutley no alcohol, at DFW this is done by hand. You will have to be escorted from the gate to OPS ( due to you being inside the AOA area). Show one hour before sched departure, we do leave early if the airplane is ready.

We like to see you guys use us. We also have a ATL-DFW flight that departs in the evening .

The airline you work for has to have an agreement with the airline you want to ride on.
