(usually you'd have a good captain and/or nice gate agents who'd get you on anyway, but it wasn't something you could contractually count on)
See link above that dragon posted. All domestic travel is free.

Are you saying that the airline you work for and possibly commuting to do a trip for would leave you behind with empty seats? Possibly canceling the flight you were supposed to do?

Even on probation we can non-rev. We can list for the J/S and if it's not available we can list for the cabin. I'd tell the gate agent anyways just in case those that had the j/s booked don't show, and they'll give it to you. Revenue passengers on standby will still bump you unless you're on the j/s.

At Delta, children are eligible at any age above 23 for unlimited S3B passes, which are considerably cheaper and travel at a higher priority (same priority as retirees) than Buddy Passes. When traveling with the employee, those adult children have the same boarding priority as the employee.

Jetnet still shows a charge for D1/D2 international in coach. I thought this was changed? Any idea when the change takes place?

I believe the change already took place, but they haven't updated the info on the site yet. You should see this message:

"Please note: we are currently working to update the estimated NRSA charges display for D2/D1 travel. Please refer to your Travel History page once travel has been completed for the exact amount that will be payroll deducted or invoiced (if you’re currently not on active payroll)."

when you check the charges on NRTP.
