Jumpseating International, Which Class?
#31
I listed myself in advance on their listing number. I know it because my carrier used to be a United Express carrier. I just called up and got an agent and explained my situation, listing as OMC. That's the key - OMC. That's what United calls a jumpseater and that is important for when you return. The agents overseas aren't really familiar with the jumpseating we do in the US. But if you go to the check-in and are already listed as OMC it is no problem.
Get to the check-in early to avoid problems with baggage. They may struggle with the OMC computer entries because they rarely use these.
I had no issues at all with United, but I also was listed in advance each time and this makes the gate agent's and check-in agent's job much easier.
