in this day and age, Space A travel is about as useless as tits on a boar hog. You're best bet is to rack up frequent flyer miles and get hard tickets with your miles.. One of the best perks of my new job is the 2 commutes on airlines twice every month that average 3000-4000 miles.. at that pace, I've got 4 solid tickets for my family vacation inside a year, and first/business class tickets if I wait two years..

Just because the Kinkos guys says so, doesn't make it so. I think UPS (the air division) get the discounted shipping (trucker drivers, couriers etc don't). Its an interline bennie. Kinkos should be on top of this, but who knows. I was in the Kinkos behind our layover hotel in HNL recently and they had a sign stating that interline shipping was not avail. 12/16 to some time near the New Year. So they should know about interline shipping bennies. Try going to the local station with your id when shipping.

thanks for the info. sounds like space A conus travel would not really be a benny no matter who you flew for....great. still curious on international flights, i guess ID90 for a vacation to europe might be an option as a cargo guy flying on a legacy for space A?
