I think it's fair. While I would like for active employees, in general, to have priority over parents (it would help commuters) it doesn't sound fair when you consider my company is separate from yours.
Less priority than the actual employee, I have no problems. However dependents, parents...NO WAY. Reason being, MY COMPANY owns and sells the seats. My company pays for the fuel. My company controls what aircraft are on that route. My company owns that flying. DAL pilots should get priority over anyone but that particular regionals employee.
