BA 1417/18 Jumpseat/flightdeck visit request
 
I don't know if such things are allowed any more but I would like to put in a request for my sister and brother in law who are flying out to Belfast on Friday 13th April (yes I know) and returning on the 20th.

Is it possible and if so how do I go about it? They are very responsible people and I would vouch for them any time.

Thank you for any anticipated assistance and information.

Any takers? I know this is a few weeks away but I would be very grateful for any pointers from the good folks at BA!

Thanks.

Mr Incongnito,

I suggest you tell them to request a flight-deck visit during the flight via a member of the cabin-crew. Most captains are more than happy to accept visitors as long as it is not a training flight. As for the jump-seat, that is totally up to the operating skipper on the day and probably the best advice is to wait to be asked rather than asking out-right.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Positive Climb! As it's a short flight is there any way to deal with the request prior to boarding, e.g. by request letter?

Cheers.

I doubt the crew for this flight have even been rostered yet.

Mr. Incognito,

perhaps a long lost love child?
