I don't know that for a fact, just an observation.

I deviate because it's convenient for me and allows me one or two extra days at home........not because "getting to Memphis sucks." By doing this, my net bank is usually close to $1000/month; a give back to the company. Maxkts stated that, "They wanted to make deviation fares 75% of the "accepted fare"!" If they did that, then I would have no choice but to take the scheduled deadhead. Lately, it seems as though the actual cost of a deadhead ticket is much more than the accepted fare........thereby costing FEDEX more $$$$. Sorry, I guess I'm not making myself clear, but then again my kids tell me that all of the time.
