Jumpseat to Puerto Rico
I am planning a cruise vacation for next may that departs out of San Juan. Since that is prime vacation time I imagine the flights are going to be full on US Airways and I might have to consider other airlines. I was hoping to find out any information on the policies of other airlines regarding offline jumpseaters and San Juan. I have heard that some airlines won't allow offline jumpers into and/or out of Puerto Rico. I wanted to fully know my options before I book this cruise and I am interested in almost every airline: American, Delta, United, Continental, AirTran and jetBlue.
If anyone can give me any information it would be greatly appreciated. I am gonna call these airlines but I'd love to hear from pilots who have actually tried. Thanks.

Shouldn't be a problem. PR is considered a domestic flight. I don't know of any passenger airline who restricts jumpseating on it. Like the other said, however, have a backup plan through other cities since it's cruise season.
