We've got all the time we need in STL. Plus I think additional time was provided with the AA agreement. That won't be the bottleneck. The bottleneck will probably be checkairmen, since a number of them are leaving.

Spouse/Domestic Partner + Dependent children + Parents(upto 4 including step-parents).

Parents pay a per leg rate, and are limited to 6 international legs. Parents are S4, and all others are S3C, except on Compass equipment which is S3.

No Buddy Passes

So why ask a question, if you already know the answer to?

What about the cost of Delta benefits? Do you have to pay a certain fee per year for each beneficiary? How does ZED fare work for you guys? Do you have electronic ZED listing or paper tickets? Can parents use it without limitations as well?

Delta benefits are $50/yr from your date of hire (it doesn't change depending on what date you actually pay the $50). That $50 covers everyone, but as mentioned before your parents pay by leg based on mileage.

ZED fares are the same as Delta employees, but I anticipate that going away as soon as we start AA flying. No other regional that does flying other than Delta's flying gets to keep Delta ZED benefits. It's almost all eZED depending on carrier and parents can use some ZED agreements, but almost always in a higher bracket.
