Jump seat-cass

Yes. Most airlines will give you travel benefits for travel on your own airline, addionally you ( not your family) will be able to travel on other US airlines using your jumpseat privileges.

Assuming that the flight is not weight-restricted, or that the flight is not full with another jumpseater who got to the counter before you, or is more senior than you if employed by the same airline. Oh, the fun...

To be properly technical a reciprocal agreement with that air carrier, as well as that airline being a CASS participant are normally required, but yes.

It's pretty much the greatest perk, ever.
 
Yes, you can pretty much travel to your hearts content for personal or work related travel. Friends getting together in Florida for the weekend? Just hop on the next flight. Family wedding in South Dakota? You can just hop on too. Will all that traveling burn you out? Yup! Especially in addition to your normal work schedule. Sitting your days off at home doing nothing is bliss.
 
Not sure how GoJet runs their benefits but for us, United pass bennies are unlimited for the employee, employee's parents, and a designated person. In addition to that we get buddy passes for 24 segments to use for anybody we want, but it does cost you a % of the ticket.
 
Is there a restriction for non reving to south america on American, or any other international destination? AA is the only carrier to go to one city I'm wanting to go to.

Depends on your agreement vis a vis seniority. Seniority has nothing to do with Jumpseat at XJT, at least not on the CRJ side. First come first served if a walk up, and first to reserve it if in the same category.
 
CRJ Jumpseat reservation begins 48 hours prior to departure.

You guys on the ERJ side able to electronically reserve the Jumpseat through xjet.com?

This jumpseat stuff is all assuming you're working for an airline as a pilot. If you're a ramper or gate agent, you'll get travel benefits through your airline, but no jumpseat privileges. I didn't see in any of your posts that you're a pilot, only "working for an airline."

Southwest takes flight attendants as well, for non-rev cabin seats.

If they have a recip agreement. For example, 9E FAs can only get jumpseats on other carriers by scheming their way on. USW hasn't made negotiating a recip agreement with anyone a priority. But, they do get a free bag.....
