You were hired in the 70s. You're gonna get on . Just list.

This was a CRJ200 commute so the 3-5 seats she'd take would often be all open seats.

Drove a bunch of us nuts.

Unless she had adopted the grand kids they should have been S4's.

She is pulling a fast one in that case. I tried to get Delta to provide just a S3 pass for my gold star granddaughter on my last flight with zero success.
Do the moms work for Delta?

This is why there should be a limit to a party. At least a limit to the number that is strictly by seniority. Sucks to not make it because the Delta Duggars decided to go on vacation. I'll just trump them by buying tickets and not dealing with the rat race.

Pry that clam in your pocket open and buy tickets if you actually want to go somewhere. Hell, you can even afford C+ or First every now and then. Non rev is for that once or twice a year transoceanic trip when you can get D1.


This entire thread is why I buy tickets.

I agree. Never have to worry about loads and enjoy my vacation.
