That's lucky! When I copped noise issues, even jump seats were full so I could not go anywhere. I even asked about downgrading from F to Y to escape the noise, and failed! I miss the old days of flight deck jumpseating. Once, I got a stalker (or pesterer, at least) and the cabin crew told the captain who invited me to sit with them in the flight deck for the flight.
