[QUOTE="Ricochet1a, post: 1001924, member: 22880"] It was taken away in late 2005 - if memory serves me correctly. If Express really wanted to have jumpseating and "weed out" all the "riff raff" (immature newhires and such...), they could've just placed a requirement to have say 2 or maybe even 3 years of continuous employment in order to jumpseat. That would've knocked out all of the "immature" types who would've potentially caused issues - while preserving the benefit for other employees. But no, the pilots didn't want to have non-business jumpseating (Express employees who are traveling on Express business, can still jumpseat - again, may have changed in the past year without my knowledge). So much for FAA regs to blame for jumpseating not being available (the FAA doesn't care if one is traveling for business or not). [/QUOTE]
