Does anybody know whether the travel benefits we get for the 90 days after furlough apply to only us employees? Do they also encompass parents, spouses, registered guests etc, who are on your travel plan?

At PSA it still was the following. ZERO buddy passes though. Your ID is turned in right away or you get an ugly letter saying they will prosecute you under some through some federal law and turn it over to the FBI. You will be downgraded from an SA3 to an SA4 I believe as well. And you can bet at 90 days you will no longer be able to look at the travel page again. Just how they play the game.

For example will I be able within the 90 days to be able to use my benefits to go from Philly to Phoenix and back with my registered guest. Or will the benefits only apply to me?
It's BS we get jipped on the benefits. It doesnt make a difference for them if there is an extra seat available. We are fully owned after all and Airways furloughees get to keep their bennies the whole time while on furlough. I guess were the bastard children of Airways. But I guess 90 days is better then nothing.

In the Aug 18 PHX Crew news video Doug Parker says:
"Its the decision we have to make in times like this to make sure we all have jobs. So, that's where we're headed - which is Piedmont we're going to reduce Piedmont flying, we'll reallocate some of it to DC but not all of it, and we'll have some airplanes go away at Piedmont."
He also seemed to think that the Mesa PHX flying was all one contract, expiring around 2014, and essentially squashed the PDT PHX rumors.
