Virgin Jumpseat
 
Gonna try and travel with the wife ( why?, cuz she told me) LAX-BOS. I haven't jump seated off line in quite awhile and never on VA. Do I need to list? How do I get thru LAX Security? Any tips would be appreciated, thanks, Jim

List at ticket counter or gate. CASS participant. I got that from the airline profile listed on this website. Not much info for you sorry.

Used them SEA-LAX. Checking in at the gate was no problem. They treated me like gold even though I am a double breasted Nazi:D Thanks again for the ride Virgin guys!

First of all, relax. We at VX are very jumpseat friendly. Use your Airline id to go through KCM. If your not in KCM, no worries. Show your ID to go through security. Once You get to concourse, go to the service desk in the middle of the LAX terminal. let them Know you would like to request JS to BOS. don't forget to let them know where your wife is sitting So they can try to get you seated together. Don't want to wear your uniform to go through TSA? No worries. Go to the ticket counter and let them know you would like to jumpseat to BOS. They will list you and get you a TSA pass. Once you are cleared on to the plane, stop by the cockpit and intro yourself to the pilots then intro yourself to the lead flight attendant. Head to your seat and enjoy our award winning service. We are glad to have you aboard!!!!

Jumping on Virgin America is about as easy as it gets. Oh, and have you seen their flight attendants?

Pro tip - don't sit anywhere near your wife.
