Or.

Allow employee to select one additional passrider (2 total) in lieu of buddy pass/parents/children. Most folks I know rarely have their parents use their benefits or are now deceased. Could we have more allotment once parents pass? Additionally, there are thousands of employees at DL who do not/cannot have children or have close relationships with someone not defined in their vertical family tree (Aunt, Uncle, Sister/Brother, best friend, etc.) Should those employees be denied having more than one passrider becuase they don't have kids? The current system feels antiquated and not reflective of how many folks describe their chosen family. Family is more than just your parents and off-spring. Allowing employees more choices in selecting their passriders feels like a long overdue change
