We’ve agreed to mutual changes to our nonrevenue pass travel policies with Delta Connection carrier Atlantic Southeast Airlines after ASA was purchased by fellow Connection carrier SkyWest in 2005. Starting Dec. 1, Delta employees will have a boarding priority of S3C on ASA aircraft and similarly ASA employees will travel S3C on Delta mainline aircraft. The changes apply just to pleasure travel; company business travel policies are not changing.
“We know that these changes may impact some Delta employees that commute or travel frequently to cities served by ASA,” said Rob Kight, v.p.-Compensation, Benefits and Services. “However, this approach is consistent with the way we handle travel with SkyWest and most of our other Delta Connection partners. Overall we feel this solution does the best job of protecting the ability of Delta employees to access the Delta mainline system while still providing access to an important part of our system.”
The current S2 and S3 boarding priorities won’t apply after Dec. 1. You still can use the emergency S1A priority if the situation qualifies for emergency travel as defined in Human Resources Practices Manual section 1014. There will continue to be no per-flight fees for you to travel on ASA.
