I hope it's realistic...two jumpseaters too cheap to buy tickets or cash in SWAG, and super junior FO hoping the cappy will pay for his meals because his perdiem isn't going far at the airport Hyatt Place.

Check airman that I flew with said the cockpit jumpseat is expected to be occupied on every leg for the first few months due to check airman and crew qualifications. Add Joe vacation pilot/mechanic/dispatcher and you can see where this is going.

6 hours with 2 jumpseaters in a cockpit that was built for 90 minute legs ought to be considered a war crime.

Cmon. SWA pilots are some of the loudest and cocky folks around. It’s good for you to have some medicine. It’s all in jest anyhow. Loosen up!

Jesus, can you guys find a valid argument? If you aren't interested in the flying - just say so.

Btw, our HNL hotel is the Hilton Hawaiian Village (and I'm sure you guys will find issues with that). The other hotels are at least that quality or better.
