I couldn't care less about better flight benefits for your girlfriend/boyfriend/companion, etc. We have provisions for significant others to be on our pass benefits. Our union priorities need to be career progression, pay, 401k, sick/vac and reserve rules. Getting your girlfriend better pass travel ranks slightly below ensuring every hotel has a bidet.

As far as “wasting the union’s time”... if SkyWest has it I don’t see how it could possibly be a hard negotiation.

It's not at all hard to say. You either show a marriage license, or proof that you have lived together for a while (think it is 6 months?) Just as proving that someone is your child; it's very simple with a birth certificate.
What IS hard is trying to convince the company you are co-domiciled when you are not. I am sure that could trip some folks up. But I applaud you for not being willing to lie to gain a benefit you are not entitled to.

Just the fact that someone is married gets them better benefits than me and the union negotiated for that?
