Default NWA Airbus Jumpseat Question...

Hey. I was planning on trying to jumpseat a -319 tomorrow. Do you guys have two jumpseats installed or just one? The flight's looking pretty tight, and I'm trying to minimize my chances of getting stuck in MSP. Thanks!

NW guys/gals are very friendly, professional and accomodating to jumpseaters; thats always been my experience. Good luck!

Two jumpseats? Sweet! I'm looking at flight 1671 tomorrow (the 23rd) from MSP to SMF.

Bubba, as of right now (2003 CDST) your flight has 5 open seats and no one listed on the JS......You'll make it!

Hope all goes well on your flight.

How accurate is nwa.com on the seat listings? Also, is there a number to list for non-northwest pilots? I've been commuting for years, but never needed to use Northwest until recently. So far everyone has been extrememly accomodating.

Never looked at nwa.com for loads. We can check actual loads and waitlists through our company system. Only NWA guys can call early and list for the jumpseat. Just show up at the gate and see how it looks. Keep in mind that nwa guys can ride on a FA jumpseat, if available, to free up the cockpit jumpseat for an off line guy. Have done it many times. I think "most " would. Good Luck.

Everyone at NWA has been fantastic. However, every single gate agent has asked me "are you listed?". Doesn't seem to be a way for me to pre-list as an employee of another airline.
