Just kind of wondering who has done it. I've toured a KC-10 and a C-5 before and saw the seating areas. One one of them another visitor (who claimed to be a flight attendant) said that the KC-10 had a coffee maker just the same as in a commercial DC-10. Other than the "amenities" like coffee, it seemed kind of spartan. Of course there are reports of military transport planes being used to fly well in excess of their rated capacity for people, but that may be a special case. I saw a movie once (with participation of the USAF) showing personnel on a C-17 who were just lying down in the cargo area and not seated like in these:
Of course there are other ways to kind of hitch a ride. Of course Cast Away showed a FedEx exec catching a few rides in jump seats. And the 2015 version of Vacation shows the protagonist going on a trip to France with his wife, but only where they were allowed to sit in jump seats next to the bathroom and where they had to deal with the PA handset cord.
