If you're looking to jumpseat. I would call the number and get the flight info.

The offline jumpseat site for non employees considers Anc international and jumpseaters are not allowed on “international” flights. Best to just call the jumpseat desk.

Weekdays: In a nutshell there are 4 flights that leave around 4am and 3 that leave at 5 pm. These are usually 74s and MDs. There is an additional option that 2 legs it through RFD and that leaves SDF at 1 am.

How does UPS decide who is in the MD-11/747 class and who is in the 757/767/A300 class?

Sorry if I missed it elswhere.

Theoretically, only folks with prior “heavy” experience will get into a MD11/747 class. Everyone else lands in the “light” twin class. Supposedly, this is a result of some RJ guys struggling with the MD/74. In my class, prior to this being implemented the RJ guys did just fine, so YMMV. Of course, no one in my class got into a fist fight with their training partner, told the captain to wait while they accepted a phone call at the hold short line, or demonstrated an inability to land a large jet. So maybe we were all exceptional.
