The yield fare is for your kids, when they are over 23. For a Buddy Pass, you pay the buddy pass amount only, not both.

You're welcome, and remember, your kids over 23 are S3B, buddies are S4. Good luck.

I think some of the regionals have to pay yield fares for their parents as well. Another reason it is probably on the site.

Hurry, there is only 17 hours and 33 minutes to change your bids another dozen times! :eek:

I don't pick up or trade, just fly what pbs gives me. With ALVs going up with the new contract we should work on this, possibly in any negotiation involving the Virgen code share. There can stil be double time for inverse assignments or reroutes into days off. I'm sure the other half that don't commute won't like this though.

Yeah - right on. There's a bunch of stuff I don't like either. We should get rid of that stuff too. Not fair.
