Question About Jumpseating and Dead Heading
#13

I prefer the cockpit over a middle seat, but usually don't ask for up front. It seems like most people prefer you sit in the back unless you have some good reason to sit up front.
I don't say thanks to gojet guys unless I sell myself out and need the cockpit. That has only happened once. When I told them I used to fly for TSA, stupid move, they because pretty big ... holes.
SWA online wants you to preboard if you are riding in the cockpit. I always ask if they MIND if I preboard and have only been denied it twice... by the same guy! I think he is the only one that abides by that rule!

Thats what I heard so I asked the captain on one flight and the gate agent on another. both said to pre-board. so thats what i did. *shrug* Oh, and I was sitting in the back. There was a post about it in the 'Major' section awhile back. They said there is a new policy but not many people follow it.
