Commuter policy AIP
 

First of all congratulations on the AIP.

Curious about the commuting policy on yalls new AIP. an excerpt from Page 46 reads;

“New aircraft from the manufacturer must have a second jumpseat installed, or a seat in the cabin will be reserved for a second United Pilot jumpseater”

Let’s say a brand new 737 comes online to United (737’s only have 1 jumpseat)

and in this scenario let’s say this flight is completely booked. Would United really kick a paying pax off to get a jumpseater on or am I missing something?

New 737s do have two jumpseats (as do all planes United has on order). However, the language is pretty clear that the second JS commuter would be considered a must ride if for some reason they bought a plane with just a single JS.

okay I guess the Max must have more room in the cockpit than a regular 737.

Mmm, nope. It’s actually pretty much an emergency procedure when there are 2 jumpseaters there.

Lot not sure if you're joking or serious brother, but this is a unintentionally hilarious post if you are indeed serious.

I thought the exact same thing, not a dig at the op but this is gold.

No, just put a cushion on the bag storage and called it a jump seat. Don’t ever ride it!

It’s the best seat if it’s the last seat!

You never know with Halon. The best course of action is to automatically assume that 100% of his posts are satire.
We'll see if that changes when he starts wearing blue shirts to work.

yea they would . The precedent is already set with the 757s. A few only have one jumpseat but if there are two jumpseaters and no open seats, a paying pax would be bumped to accommodate the second jumpseater.
