I'm currently on a trip with a CA who is from Madison. He commutes to EWR since his upgrade.

There's, I think, at least two flights per day each way on our own aircraft.

APC has been great for answering questions (grains of salt included). I think I came up with one I haven’t seen: Are FA’s allowed to ride jump seat when commuting and would they have the same seniority as a pilot? If an earlier DOH FA commutes and the pilot is newly hired and there’s only one “seat” available... is the pilot sol?

Flight attendants cannot ride the flight deck jumpseat. They can “jumpseat” in the regular cabin if there’s room and they may ride the additional flight attendant jumpseat on Republic metal only (except United, something with the union). Not sure about regular seats in the cabin but for the extra FA seat they get priority over pilots.

Probably a good thing, a new FO shouldn’t be focused on anything other than learning then plane and FOM.

You must be a first class treat to fly a four-day with.
Arghhh.
