We consider a Markovian jumping process with two absorbing barriers, for which the waiting-time distribution involves a position-dependent coefficient. We solve the Fokker--Planck equation with boundary conditions and calculate the mean first passage time (MFPT) which appears always finite, also for the subdiffusive case. Then, for the case of the jumping-size distribution in form of the Lévy distribution, we determine the probability density distributions and MFPT by means of numerical simulations. Dependence of the results on process parameters, as well as on the Lévy distribution width, is discussed.
