Plenty of regional carriers have to pay to nonrev on their mainline partners. All of NWA's feeder carriers have to pay to nonrev on mainline Northwest. Does it suck? Of course, but it's not that unheard of.
Just jumpseat.
Mini:
Smart... You intend to fly off plan to try to make extra money while harming 73 other people, plus downline folks who just want to remain on schedule? Good judgement there - putting yourself first - Captain. Hope you mention your philosophy next time you interview.
By the way, how happy would you be if you took a 57% pay cut? When you board your Delta flight consider what those guys put up with and yet, they still are performing professionally. With 3,500 hours I would consider myself prety darned lucky to be flying your E170 in Delta colors and if this is the worst form of abuse you have to put up with, you are really fortunate.
Look for your alternatives:
(1) Your airline flies for multiple carriers
(2) You can JS for free and DAL has multiple JS
(3) Can't you fly on your own airline for free?

I agree that this change in non rev benefits is not a good thing, for the very reason that it lowers morale amongst Delta's subcontractors' employees. What you do not realize at your profitable alter ego is that Delta is having a heck of a time trying to figure out how to continue operations with fuel approaching $3.00 a gallon.
Just think, how happy would you be if you took a 57% pay cut? When you board your Delta flight consider what those guys put up with and yet, they still are performing professionally.

(4) If these passes are owed to you, get together with your pilot buddies and bring a breach of contract claim. (oh, or is it that these were never really yours to begin with?)

True. It was changing just as I was leaving PCL. Until early last year, the only people that got free pass travel at the feeders were the guys with over 5 years of seniority. Everyone else had to pay.Compass employees don't pay to fly on NWA (except in first class, but there are never any seats anyway). I can't speak for Mesaba or Pinnacle, but I think they have the same deal.
