RAH ZED agreements and scheduling
 
Is there a definitive list of who Republic Holdings employees can buy ZEDs on?

Also, how hard is it to get trips other than four days? Are there many opportunities to fly day trips and two days on the Shuttle America side?

If you want day trips bid LGA on the S5 side. 300 of them for June 2013. Just so IND, CMH can be justified as bases. They get what would be LGA overnights on their 4 day trips.

Zed's have been all over the place. We're finally a member on MyIDTravel and the list isn't the best yet but was told by travel that 30-40 new airlines should be added soon.

How is ORD in terms of trip mix? Are ORD and LGA senior, long to hold a line?

Which European airlines do you guys have ZEDs with?

Thanks so much for the info.

In order of seniority(S5)... ATL, ORD, LGA. CMH and IND are always being staffed because no one wants it unless you live in the area. As far as on the CHQ side of the world I have no idea other than LGA is pretty sr, and ORD is a sweat shop. Pick your poison, but welcome to CMH to start!

Our ZED's are constantly changing. Our travel benefits suck except for DL. On F9 (part of RAH) we are a lower priority level than our BUDDY PASSES!!!! If you are looking at travel as part of wanting to come here, you're in for a fun time!

Thanks!

So what about actual trip mix for each base? As I understand it LGA is mainly day trips and IND and CMH are mainly uncommutable four days. How about ORD and ATL? I like to try and avoid four days generally, so I'm really interested in day trips and two days.

MyIDTravel has a list of LOTS of foreign airlines, among British, Singapor, Japan Airlines, as well as Lufthansa and Qatar. Am I missing something here? Does that initial list shrink once you log-in?

Yes it shrinks to only the carrier you have agreements with.

I'm going to Germany at the end of the month, with RAH's wonderful zed fares, the only hope I have other than united and delta who I have benefits on is Air Berlin. No virgin, no Lufthansa, no Speedbird, etc.

You could go on Condor too

Even DL sucks! No buddy passes, no registered guest. I'd have to open a bank acct with my girlfriend just for her to use the benefits.

At least they are trying to fix our F9 benefits (only b/c corporate employees are complaining about being lower priority than F9 buddy passes)

ATL is a United outstation, so naturally the trips are multi-day & un-commutable. There is no DL flying there.

ORD has a very good mix of trips. The bottom 50% in base does mostly 3-4 day trips however. I wouldn't plan on holding day trips for a few years if you get to ORD.
