Dallas Pokornik, 33, a former flight attendant, requested a jump seat in the cockpit for the flights, the office claimed, citing court records. Representatives for Hawaiian Airlines, United Airlines and American Airlines — which are respectively based in those cities — didn’t immediately respond to request for comment, according to The Associated Press. Last June, a Florida man was found guilty of posing as a flight attendant to obtain more than 120 free flights over six years. He did this by posing as a flight attendant who worked for other airlines, according to the attorney's office. He also posed as a flight attendant on three other airline carriers, the news release notes.
