Travel benefits for furloughed pilots
I’m just curious what regional airlines have travel benefits for furloughed pilots? What code share partners can you travel on at what priority level and how long do those benefits last?

Comair guys get nonrev bennies for five years.
They have a lower priority than a deceased Delta retiree's former babysitter, but they get to nonrev.
SuperPilotJesse might chime in - I think he jumpseats offline, too.

SC3R. No jumpseating... unless you still have your ID and you go to a small time carrier. (Island air, CMA, Etc.) I now jumpseat offline cuz i gots me a yob. After 2 years of being mostly abroad...
SC3R - Never missed a flight I wanted to get on. Lucky or Talented? Both.

S3CR has been handy for international flights. I get business class 90% of the time. Domestic hub flights? Don't even bother to try. Does it upset me? Nah. I probably get the equivalent of nearly double my Comair salary in international business class travel every year.
S3CR is better than NOTHING like most other airline furloughs. But then again, most furloughs can expect to be recalled.
