ASA's New...newer flight benefits...

[jetracer5]

Seems like all of our complaining over here at ASA is paying off over at Delta. Looks like Delta is changing our benefits yet again....for the better I hope. I think the pay to ride the big D is going away... Anybody heard anything?

more likely pessure from the DL pilots who do a heck of a lot more commuting on us than we do on them....you know the ones that have not been getting the jumpset because of "weight/balance" issues.....

 

[ASA DX]

yeah they havent said anything about flying specifically on Delta. the new ZED fares are out today, but that hasnt be addressed yet..i guess we still fly for free as of right now.

Just unveiled, the new/newer/most recent website for all your employee travel needs. I think they'll stick with this one.

 

[Long Time Gone]

So where exactly are these "newer" benefits in writing????

 

[ohplease!]

I don't commute (smarter than avg.) and rarely travel on a plane (last thing I want to get on after a 4 day) and frankly don't give a rip. I don't care who gets on my jump seat as long as they show proper respect /courtesy.

Just telling ya' what I've heard some of the other kids talking about (you know the ones that have been bitching about the pass changes).

The only two jumpseaters that haven't made it on my jump seat both tried to tell me how to do my job (as though they believed I wasn't as qualified as them). oops.

you know me better than that.....bouyyyyy

From OurASA,

"Delta, ASA and SkyWest are working together to improve the per-mile and per-segment fee structure for domestic non-rev travel. A simplified fee structure is expected to be agreed upon and communicated in February"

Yeah, cause when PILOTS complain people listen.

Anyone denying a jumpseat over this is rather short sighted about the deal. You have a much better chance to fix these problems if you get the guy on your jumpseat and let them know whats happening. You never know, it may be a union guy that has some clout in getting the problem fixed.

I haven't been denying jumpseaters. But I've been very weight limited. So much so, in fact, that I've been unable to accommodate any non revs below S3.

Seriously- for you Comair/ASA/Skywest pilots,

Looking on DeltaNET - Delta is introducing a ZED Fare for employee/interline travel. Is this the system that they are imposing upon you for your standby travel? Or is this a "buddy pass"?

Excerpts below..

Interline travel is based on individual agreements with each carrier. The ZED system provides a consistent way of providing interline travel between airline partners. We will move to ZED fares on more airlines during the next several months, eventually converting all our interline agreements to ZED-based fares, said Ivan Dezelic, director-Interline and Industry Affairs. Existing ID90-type fares will continue to apply on other carriers until ZED agreements take effect.

There are three levels of ZED fares – low, medium and high. Most carriers participate at the ZED medium fare level. Fares are consistent between carriers but are subject to annual review. Our goal is to negotiate ZED-medium fares with our interline partners as well, Ivan said.

ASA Travel..

Ticketing - Flights operated as DL Connection flights follow the same travel procedures as DL flights with the exception of boarding priority.
**Boarding priority is S-3C for employee/spouse/minor dependent children under 21
Boarding priority is S-3CR for retiree and spouse/parents/yield fare passengers
Boarding priority for family and friends is S-4
All yield fare tickets must be purchased at a Delta ticket counter prior to travel. ASA agents CANNOT issue yield fare tickets.

SkyWest employees
For those employees eligible for Delta Dedicated Travel Privileges, segment and mileage fees will not be applied for Delta Air Lines domestic travel. A new fee, likely an increase to your PPR Activation Fee, will be agreed upon sometime in February. However, those employees eligible for Delta Dedicated travel privileges still receive:

· Delta Buddy Passes
· A total of six international travel days
· Travel Companion program
· Electronic priority upgrade (S2) passes on SkyWest Delta Connection

Electronic parent travel on SkyWest (elimination of Blue Pass)

Delta has just announced that all SkyWest employees will have access to Delta Air Lines’ ZED Agreements. Delta has agreed to include all SkyWest Airlines employees, as well as those eligible on their TA, in their new Delta ZED Interline agreements, effective February 1.
Who does Delta have ZED Interline agreements with?
Delta has just announced their move from ID agreements to ZED, and will have ZED
agreements with Northwest, Alaska and Continental beginning February 1.
Additionally, they are working to negotiate additional agreements with carriers
throughout the world. SkyWest will likely now have agreements with carriers that have previously been inaccessible.
Oh, YEAAH!! Bouyyyyyyy

I still don't seem to understand why a company tries to make money off its employees? Most non-revs know how to behave an understand the rules.

Beacause all of the talented CEO's are not in the airline industry.
