But yeah...back on topic...don't think we at CPS are in much of a position to fight for better nonrev bennies. For one, they actually are getting better: we presently board behind all mainline employees on our *own* metal regardless of DOH, and we are represented by mainline DALPA reps.
We are actually at the same pass type as NWA employees on CPS flights: we both go on pass type 5. I think we get a worse deal with Delta because now not only mainline, but XJ and OH can bump us off Compass flights by DOH (we're all pretty "junior" here).
