Default Sun Country Jumpseat Qs

I am looking to Jumpseat from MBJ to FLL on Sun Country. The flight is actually Caribbean Airlines flight 35 Operated by Sun Country. Do I need a ZED fare, or can I jumpseat?
Also, there are 12 open seats in F but Y is almost full will they be able to take me in F if Y is full?
Thanks!

Not really sure, but if the seats are owned by Caribbean you probably need a ZED. Sun Country is fantastic toward jumpseaters. Won't usually put you in First unless Coach is totally full, but they've put me there when it was.

ZED's are typically refundable, so bring one, ask for the JS, and use it if they say no.

Are they contracting Sun Country because Caribbean lost that hull the other month?

I think so... but they might have been using them even before that.
Thanks for the info OGLITHORPE! I have recieved some info contrary to that from guys I work with. They have said that Sun Country will NOT put you in F if its available and make you sit in the jumpseat if Y is full. I dont care about F on a 1.5 hour flight - only problem is its international and I wont be able to sit in the J/S. If Y is full but F is open, I fear I'm left behind :/
