Edit. It is a set amount whether it costs you more or less than the contract amount. If less, keep the change.

Retired and Fly, thanks. I was looking for someplace to fax a receipt, but I guess faxing the Class I Certificate is the only trigger necessary.

Nice job by Retired not disclosing the $$$ reimbursement, otherwise the AMEs might raise their rates!

Hey I've got a buddy pass coming out of lax today and I have a question, should I jump in front of a fast moving bus or train or just jump off a bridge... over a highway... in front of a bus?

LAX to where? I've been doing to the ATL to LAX commute for about six months and I have only gotten a seat in the back once. ONCE!

I'm always amazed how many people use the on board headsets. How about noise canceling headsets and hot mike capability in the next contract? It's ridiculous to jumpseat on SWA and they're having a nice quiet conversation on hot mike while we're up there with one ear cup off yelling at each other. We can sell it as a reduction in future health care costs.
