Flight 2059 from Everett, Washington, was bound for San Francisco when it was diverted to Portland, where Joseph David Emerson was booked on 83 counts of attempted murder.
I doubt it. Aviation would grind to a halt is pilots and flight attendants can’t commute in jump seats. Besides, this guy was a captain. He could have done the same thing as a pilot, much like the Germanwings flight several years ago.

Grind to a halt? Can’t they just reserve one seat in premium economy or wherever is closest to the cockpit for jump passengers?
That would cost airlines a ton and raise airfare for everyone. As it is the jumpseats are only used when the aircraft if full.
And all for what, pulling someone that will just be in a cockpit later in the day or the next day?
Ah, your second point makes sense. Can’t keep someone that’s in a jumpseat out of the cockpit for long.
But what about their profits?!
