latch...used to let you guys jumpseat all the time...had a lot of blokes from Vancouver,Phoenix,and seattle.....they werent on our jumpset list,but as long as they has all the proper ID,etc etc ..is was Capts discretion.....NOT ANY MORE....our hands are tied mate,911 and all the security issues have put the kabosh on the whole thing
I,m on our jumpseat committe,reason....I commute to kiwi once a month,so I,m always looking to get better bennies for the boys(not myself
).....but the TSA have made it miserable for us to try and do buiness....
Several months ago,let a CX bloke who Ive known for years,have the jumpseat,...hey ,I,m the skipper..my seat.....ended up getting disciplined and a letter in my file...turns out the gate agents dobbed me.....no fun anymore and as much as we would like to offer you CX (and others)blokes the jumpseat.....unless we have an official agreement our hands are tied...PB
