Not only that but on the 31st they already had a SKY TEAM painted A330. JFK ground thought it was our 757 since it was in that grey paint scheme.

Default Pass Question

While on a DL coded flight, wife listed as S3 and non-dependent son S3B. Active Skywest empl listed in seniority order along with DL emps. RS buddy listed near the bottom of the stby list. When later flights were listed as RS, RS employee still listed in seniority order with DL emps, but now the RS buddy was moved up to just below active RS employee..but above non-dependent son. Is this correct?

Default Revenue Loss

Same day, same city pair in previous post 5 flights all 50 seaters. Rev HK shows up for the second flight of the day, volunteers to give up his seat in exchange for $400 voucher, contiunes the same scheme for the next 3 flights. Ends up with 4 $400 vouchers, $80 in cash for food, a voucher for a hotel....and than goes out on an AMR flight same night paid for by DL. Suggested to the agent that maybe they should pass around the luck...agent replied that they can do anything they want to.

Wow. Shouldn't you be able to volunteer only once per reservation #? What a scam.

You need to look at the airport standby list.

You're right, but it was ugly. Utah St almost made my day!

Not second or third hand. Not all LECs think alike.
Bill, Please post the names of the reps and what exactly was said. I will be the first to call them out on it.
