I always try to stop up front and say hi if I get the chance, even if I am just non revving. All I know is that on my flights, I like to know if we have any talent in the back, just in case we might need them. United 232 ring a bell? It's just common courtesy, as long as you aren't interrupting anything, and it only takes a few seconds.

Every time I JS/nonrev on WN, the lead FA directs me to check in with the CA.
When I go on USA, I am always told to submit my nonrev paperwork to the CA. I have even been asked for my certificate & medical so the CA can see it. Once when riding in the back.
I check in with the crew with a quick thanks regardless.

I say hi when I can, only when I'm in uniform. The other day, a flight was weight restricted from phl-lga, but the pdt crew worked it out to get me on, of course I went and thanked them while chit chat for few mins.
Deadheading I don't say hi unless I know the crew, but of course I stay after everyone deplanes then help with seat belts at least.
Anytime I'm riding in the back of a different carrier, I will go and ask for their blessings.
Saw some angry posts here about "why are you saying hi???" were you guys not hugged when you were little? It's not that hard to be nice to others... geez

And then there's the captain I've flown with who insists all crews check in with him. He instructs FA's to alert him if a pilot boards without "checking in" with him. This guy is a commuter himself! We have had many chats about this and there's no changing his mind about this. Sorry in advance to anyone who has to deal with him.
My opinion, pass travelers,deadheads, nonrev need not check in with the crew.
