Yeah. That is definitely in violation of the travel policy. Would really be a bummer for him if he lost his wife and his right before retirement.
Here's what I do. "Hey, I'm listed as a non-rev but I'd be happy to take the JS if you need it to get everyone on." I've never once gotten a bad attitude about it or any other reaction that wasn't thanking me.
Also, if he was S3B, wouldn't that be a regional carrier?
