What airlines will take 135 jumpseaters?

Just wondering what airlines out there take Part 135 Jumpseaters and would be worthwhile trying to coordinate a reciprocal agreement? Any help would be appreciated, I currently pay for my commute and am trying to negotiate some agreements on behalf of my company. Thanks any and all information is greatly appreciated.

If you work for MAC then I know you can go on NWA/DAL. I've had several MAC Caravan drivers up front.

When I worked for Ram Air out of RDU, we had a reciprocal with Southwest.

Air Cargo Carriers has jumpseat agreements with most of the majors and regionals.

My Mesa General Ops Manual says any CASS verified 135 pilots can ride in the cockpit jumpseat.

Who are the CASS verified 135 pilot groups? I haven't seen any 135 guys in a while. I don't think many get past the Tub Stackers or the Gate Nazis.

If you can get to the gate and I see you then you are welcome anytime.
