They didn't charge at all at airways before? Heck, if you're domiciled and live at an airport served by other carriers..don't pay it..and just use CASS..You can probably just sign up for the jumpseat on Airways too through CASS and not get charged a cent! |
AMR has been doing that forever. I spent over $2000/yr in commute/non-rev. International to San Juan was $32.00 ea way. Now that I don't have JS privileges and actually have to buy tix, its not that bad. Allegiant and southwest have great fairs , no standby dealing with crazy gate agents who will let the plane leave with 10 empty seats while you watch them push, pleading your case to get on.

Looks like Delta is charging more now too! I just went in and looked on DeltaNet and PPR activation fee just went up to $100 and $50 for each additional person for a max cap of $200 with a 7.5% tax. Looks like it is costing more for everyone to fly standby! |
Thats too bad..
When the hell is there going to be some damn good news for a change? No wonder everyone in this industry is so bitter. |
Nothing like rock bottom oil prices to have them squeeze the employees.

It definietly sucks for us. But I always ask the gate agents and rampers why they work for at airport for wages you could somewhere else and for less frustration and 10 out of 10 say for the travel benefits. I'm guessing we will be seeing some of them quiting in the near future. A perk that's not such a perk anymore. Not only will you not make the trip now to oversold seats it will cost you also.

Did your company put out this information?
Not that it isn't coming for my carrier, I just haven't seen this information come down the pipe YET. What companies have been notified of this impending crapola? |
