As a new hire, how many days/months after starting with the company will my wife be eligible to use myidtravel? Thanks in advance.

I believe it's 6 months after date of hire

You’ll probably find the travel benefit to be pretty unimpressive. At 6 months you have to take a course and complete the test to earn the id90 benefit. It basically explains the rules and procedures for using the benefit.

Depending on the fleet type you get, you’ll likely earn top tier status at one or more of the legacy carriers and will be traveling positive space on award tickets and getting upgraded. This is a far better way to travel than id90.

Ok boomer... it’s a great benefit with the obvious risk of being a stby traveler... my family and I use it all the time with great success... just be flexible with your travel plans.

It works for some. Being flexible is key for sure. My last standby ticket was when I worked for my last passenger airline, many years ago. I’ve used FF tickets for most tickets over the years.

Just curious... You said you use ID90’s all the time. Are you confusing these with standby travel on your own airline? Cause they’re not the same.

It’s like saying a Buddy Pass is the same as an S3. I didn’t mind S3 travel. I’ve seen Buddy Passes stuck for days.

Myidtravel...stby mostly on SWA which is not my airline... Just under 20 trips since May

It’s a good benefit for some, just depends on your situation. Vacation time is valuable for me, so I don’t use it. I’ve had great luck with FF tickets and using deviation bank money for my tickets. Again, it just depends on your situation.

When things get back to normal and loads are high again, one morning disruption can cascade throughout the day. Even well planned standby travel can go to **** in a hurry. These tickets are the lowest of priority. Flexibility and patience is key and be prepared to split up if that’s what it takes.
