Yes, double clicking the tail number in OTIS will show the number of JS.

The real question, are SW CAs willing to take 2 JSers on a 737? That’s apparently an issue at some places.

Never had or seen a SWA turn down 2 riders. And I’ve ridden with 2 a few times. Not comfortable by any means but the crews are really good about it.

YMMV

Done two quite a few times, I think it’s more if someone would want to ride the JS for 3+ hours ha. More often I think people count on two seats there.

Anyone that denies a JSer just cause the cockpit will have four people deserves to be in the TOTD thread.

Never have I seen two turned down. Rode in the 2nd many a time as well.

At a certain blue and white airline based on the west coast, it's such a prevalent culture that gate agents will tell a JSer that they have to check with the CA if it's okay to take 2 jumpseaters. Once trying to JS, a United guy ahead of me lists for the jumpseat. I'm behind him. I get to the podium, and my own airline gate agent tells me, "well I'll have to check with the CA, I already have one JSer."

Can you believe that?

It's my airline. As a CA, now every time I get to the gate regardless of loads I tell them that I'm okay with 2 JSers. It's a huge cultural issue that needs to be fixed. The real question is why does it exist in the first place? Because at this blue and white carrier, the overwhelming majority of pilots live in base. For their "comfort" several guys started a practice of only taking 1 JSer. When you drive to work and have never commuted, I can see how that mentality prevailed.

Trying to get it changed, but it's the reality here.

There is at least one captain at SWA who will only fly with one JSer. He makes up some excuse about an injury and an ongoing dispute with the company that makes no sense. I had the pleasure of flying with him and watching him deny someone a ride home. It was pretty awesome.

Dude, this post is full of B.S. There is no “practice” of denying the jumpseat at AS because many live in base. I’ve only known of 1 guy to ever deny jumpers on a regular basis and he’s retired now. The only other time I’ve seen a CA say no to someone sitting in the high chair in the last 14 years, (4+ at the company and 10 commuting out of SEA) is because he was about 6’5” and it was a transcon. In fact the majority of guys I fly with make the walk and or tell the agent both seats are open upon check in. You’re stirring the pot with some fairy dust on this one.

Twatwaffle.
