Yes, we (ups) also get frequent flier miles on airlines whenever we deadhead. Those who fly international trips can collect lots of miles fairly quickly.. Fdx gets those too...

Until recently, FDX only got miles on NWA. Seems like about a year ago, we started receiving AA, UAL, and SWA (I think, I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong). It's a good deal if you deadhead frequently. :D

Just curious I believe deals with UPS are very limited because, unlike FedEx, we do not reciprocate and offer industry discounts on shipping to other companies. Hell, UPSers don't even get a UPS discount. |
I think those ID90s are a little overrated. I used to get some ID90s at my previous airline and we bought ID90 tickets on DAL and a few other major airlines. They got pretty expensive though, it's 90% off the highest priced ticket and very often we could find a better deal on Orbitz or Travelocity...

UPS recieves very limited interline ID90-type agreements. We have deals with WN, Cayman Airways, South African Airways, Delta, Martinair Holland, and Scenic Airlines. My previous airlines offered about 20 times as many deals.

And I agree with AV8OR, ID-90s are overrated. I'll take it a step farther and go out on a limb and say non-rev benefits in general are overrated. :eek: When I started flying they were great. 10 years ago they were good. Now they are a difficult benefit to take full advantage of ... IMHO. :D |
Any info on how to get this ID90 or the Southwest space A tickets would be very helpful. Thank you.
