Thanks, I appreciate it!

Tanks off all the info. It will be domestic from Mia back to Mem due to no Fdx flights back to Mem on fri.

Is this still enforced across most airlines? According to the ALPA app info, SWA requires clean shaven but Delta does not mention it.

Also, my myID account is not setup yet (new hire), but I am in CASS and KCM. SWA's info says listing on myID first is mandatory before requesting a jumspeat, but Delta and others don't mention it. Are most gate agents still able to get you listed (assuming you're extra polite/early enough /etc)? How about international cabin flowback? I can't buy a zed fare yet, but could I still flow back to the cabin?

I'm 99 percent sure AA you can have a beard.
Yes, SW is done through Myidtravel.
DAL is done through the gate agent.
You pay taxes for flow back into cabin for international JS.
ALPA Delta JS has this information published on their website. Please check it.

After reviewing the ALPA app info I understand the normal process for both of these involves listing on myIDtravel, but my account is not enabled yet (new hire with only CASS/KCM), so my question is, can CASS only still get me on SWA or an international cabin flowback if a myIDtravel listing isn't possible yet? Would like to visit Europe where jumpseating isn't a thing but not sure how I can purchase zed outside of myIDtravel. Asking around, I've gotten answers all over the place from "depends on the agent", "just try it and see", "probably", "probably not". Looking for something more concrete for planning purposes before I press-to-test.

Thanks for the help!

Being 'nice' to a gate agent and them making it work outside the system in the US is one thing, good luck with doing that on your return from Europe. As a new hire, I wouldn't risk it.

again, delta doesn't use myidtravel for jumpseat.
