I've treated these as paper 500s, but as you are based in JAX, word to the wise, to use the paper 500s ex-JAX, you should get to the airport extra early as you will have to visit the counter. Last Saturday I was there and there was 1 agent to deal with 2 departures... and most people were checking bags.
