XJT jumpseat
 

can you jumpseat on XJT with a set of golf clubs? Thx

As far as I know, we don't have any rules against it but how do you get through security with them?

Why couldn't you go through security with them?

Maybe they'll let you through with them as a crew member but they are on the TSA prohibited carry-on list.

lets see, 3 foot long metal and composite shanks with big metal lumps at the end.

nope, can't see why they could be construed as dangerous...

Oh, I didn't know that. But you can bring a guitar through... and that's something nicknamed an "axe."

Which can inflict more harm: a terrorist with a nine iron or Tom Greene with a guitar? Point made. :cool:

I see your point, but there are plenty of things that are probably "legal" to bring though security which could be used as a weapon. Hell, they've started using metal forks and knives again at some airport restaurants.... within the "sterile area."

You will have to risk it and check the golf clubs. Be sure the loads are looking good...

Trust me, you wont get them through security. i worked for xjt, before being furloughed and flew to my home town and wanted to pick up my golf clubs and bring them back with me. My dad brought them up for me and i tried to get through security with them and they pulled me aside for about an hour questioning me about why i wanted to bring my golf clubs on the plane. Nevermind i was in full uniform and all and they couldnt even provide a copy of the prohibited items there. So in answer to your question, NO, you cannot take them on the jumpseat or through security. You have to check them as checked baggage. I tried and failed.

We have metal forks and knives on our airplanes - in first class. :)

You can but they have to be checked at the ticket counter.

I got shot down trying to take a bat through..

Here ya go. And leave that cricket bat at home too! ;)

TSA: Prohibited Items

One word, CrewPass. Its not that good in CAE from what I heard, but works like a gem in the other locations. Ive taken skis and all sorts of stuff through. If you can drag it, you can take it...

Based on TSA's success rate at detecting prohibited items I'd give it an 80% likelihood of getting through without them even noticing...

IT depends on the airport your flying out of. They each have their own "policy" which is open to interpretation based on whichever 9th grade education wonder you get. as they are frisking you in your cubicle on the side watch the old man walk by with his metal cane, the redneck with a ceramic or plastic knife in his belt, and the actual terrorist with a gun that is camouflaged as a working cell phone.... And the cherry on top is to think of the BILLIONS of dollars they are wasting on this dumb ass sherade

Well at least they are keeping the sharp metal objects far away from the cockpit door... :-)

ALLOWED AS CARRY-ON
Scissors - metal with pointed tips and blades shorter than four inches

Uhh....they are clubs?
