Your indeed correct, there is a letter from the CAA to all UK Airlines confirming that fairly soon there will be no jumpseaters
on pax or frieght airlines unless employed by said Airline.
It also makes specific reference to friends and families being a
no-no.
There are exceptions to "group" Airlines but they must follow
the same screening and ID issue methods.
Not going down well but least we forget the reasons
