part 135 jumpseat privileges
Last week one of our pilot's heard SouthWest asking ATC @ Hobby which cargo operators flew direct San Antonio.
Now we've had a SW pilot and stew catching rides on GTA Barons & Cessna 402s. We,on the other hand, don't seem to have a reciprocal agreement with anyone but Paragon.
Is there a website of who to contact?

No idea, I've heard of a SWA capt catching a ride out of MDW to somewhere south in an Airnet Lear before. The Lear crew asked if they could pick him up at the gate on their taxi out!!! Talk about service!

SWA Jumpseating
Ameriflight has an official reciprocal jumpseat agreement with Southwest Airlines (SWA). Ameriflight is a participant in CASS, which allows AMF flight crew members cockpit jumpseat privileges aboard SWA. In turn, SWA pilots are allowed to jumpseat on all AMF aircraft.

AirNet Jumpseat
AirNet has a very active jumpseat program. We have reciprocal agreements with almost all the regionals and several majors/Nationals. We are also as CASS participant. The Lear's have two jumpseats and the props all have one. We starcheckers are always more than willing to get somebody home after a late flight!

Was talking to another 135 pilot today who thought that even though you are not CASS approved, Southwest still allows Part 135 pilots to ride along even if they do not have any jumpseat agreements.
Does anyone know if thats true?

Yeah but at the last two jobs you had the bestest most awesomest bosses ever and would allow any one and every one on the flight if there was an open seat. As is should be with all airlines as a Professional courtesy as long as there is an extra seat. Now I get if the captain does not like Airline XYZ fair enough but when its left to the gate agents who have less than a GED.....
