If a destination is marked with a home icon, it means you can book a flight to that location. If the destination only has a small blue dot with no icon, it indicates that you can only travel there via jumpseat.
You can jumpseat to any and all of our destinations at any time without flying there. Click here to find out more about jumpseating to other airports!
