When flying for a private airline in South America, we were allowed to take passengers with ID Travel tickets on cabin JS (when flight overbooked), could be family members or employees older than 14 years old… As for the cockpit jump seat, we could only take pilots from any airline (with or without a ticket, only captain authorisation and they had to pay a little fee), and company employees with ID ticket who hold an aeronautical licence (pilot, cabin crew, mechanics and dispatchers). Seems complicated but it was the rules, and it worked perfectly for over 10 years. Now days companies are more strict regarding the use of JS… a few months ago, I was asked by an AF captain to land in the cockpit at USHUAIA (beautiful approach), and as much as i would have liked to let her watch the approach, I had to say no…
