I flew my JFK to SAN commute via SDF on UPS Airlines ![Big Grin :D :D](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png)
I had nothing but a wonderful experience when jumpseating with them. First leg was on an A300. Very comfy jumpseat quarters and super comfy jumpseats. The second leg was in a 767. Same comfy jumpseats as well. The jumpseats recline more than a coach seat and have side-bolster headrests. What I was so thankful about most was the fact that UPS set up a crew meal for me with catering once they knew I listed for the jumpseat. The layover in SDF was nice - there is a cafeteria that has food at extremely cheap prices. I had biscuits and gravy with sausage for $1.39 (I know, bad for my health...but I needed some comfort food for the long commute).
What I found was:
No TSA to deal with.
No crying babies.
No drunk passengers.
No periodic PA announcements.
No passengers dinging the loud FA service chimes.
Etc...etc...etc...
It was a way to get me home earlier, even though it was not the shorter non-stop flights I'm used to taking.
Thanks to the pilots and UPS for the ride!
