We can go back and forth on merits and what planning people ought to do (especially retirees that are free to plan and travel 24/7.....). The simple fact is a WO employee is making Delta money now, while a retiree is not.
I can play your game of “absurd reasons the family of a contractor’s employee is the responsibility of Delta” but I’ll one up you. A Delta employee’s parents are now at a nonrev disadvantage while traveling to a Delta employee’s house to watch the kids while Delta’s employee flies a trip. Huh, maybe employee’s parents should get S3A-0.5...
