US Airways jumpseat to Europe
Never have jumpseated on US to Europe before.
Is there a number to list , or do you just show up at the gate and hope for the best?
And by the way , any US guys on this board that could check the load

In general you must list for a international flight in order to have your name processed and cleared by TSA. Different airlines have different rules on times for this. At Delta its 74 minutes prior to the flight. In addition you need to check in at the ticket counter to pay any international departure fees or taxes ect....

Here's another thing, Viking.
At some US Airways stations in Europe, they want a receipt that you paid the departure tax already in PHL. Most airlines have you pay at the gate or ticket counter in Europe for the flight home, but US does it differently for some reason. So if you think you might come back on US as a jumpseater, pay the tax in PHL and then if you don't come back on them, you can always get a refund later on at a desk in PHL.

Will that be a problem as far as taxes?
