Default Jumpseating on Era

Is it possible to jumpseat on era? I'm looking at a dash flight from anchorage to kodiak in July, and am wondering if this is a possibility. Do they only honor reciprocals, or is it pretty laid back? My company does not have a reciprocal with them but is in cass.

They seem pretty laid back. Met the C.P. at Flight Saftey a year ago and have jumped from SEA to ANC with a few ERA FO's. Your best bet would be to just call their Ops.

Should be no problem as long as you're CASS. I caught a ride from ANC to FAI about 1.5 years ago and sat in the back. Everyone there was very nice and helpful, from the ticket counter agents to the crews.

I heard they are generally pretty cool unless your company competes with them . . .

Things have changed at Era in the last few months (even more so than since Frontier bought them in 2009), don't plan on getting a ride unless you have a reciprocal at this point, still worth a try, but it's a much longer shot than it was previously. Also, all the nice Era employees have mostly replaced with Frontier ones (though there are still a few Era people) in the Anchorage station, so how nice the CSA is going to be the luck of the draw.

Frontier/Era/Arctic Circle = None, Frontier is supposedly going away anyway and they're long on pilots in the other two.

Hageland's (read: Tweto's) = Here and there for the last few years, AFAIK they've run about 4 or 5 classes in the last 2 years.
