I'm a CPL/Multi holder (IR in progress) and due to fly out to JNB tonight from LHR. Any point in asking for a jumpseat for the arrival and landing into JNB? (I wouldn't dare ask it for the departure!) or do SAA have a specific policy that says no?

Thanks for your help!

SAA (read the CP and DFO) does not allow jumpseaters who are not SAA pilots. Even family members have to go through a security check and are then issued flight deck access passes.

Also, airlines are not allowed to carry non-airline jumpseaters into UK airspace.
