That and can't get anywhere with your family because everything is full or you're at the bottom of the list.

The nice thing about AA/Envoy is that you (if you decided to keep your access up to date) have access to passenger reservation system so you can see what the gate agents are doing working the flight.

You have access to how many seats are unassigned and which passengers are potential misconnects (so those seats are available for reassignment to people on the standby list.) As the gate agents work their way down the standby list, you can see if your family is going to get on the flight or not.

Endeavor Pass Travel Benefits are about to get a whole lot better Oct. 1. Better than any other DCI carrier. Also we get jumpseat priority over everyone else except a Delta pilot. Unlimited international travel for you and spouse(partner). Parents don't pay yield fare anymore. Various other improvements, fly confirmed for less, etc...

Who cares about that. They are completely worthless anyway.

After using the search function I'm bumping this thread.

Would like to get the most current info for your regional. Ideally wind up being able to stack-rank the regionals with regards to travel benefits.

I've heard Envoy is #1. Is that still true?

Thanks.

Flight benefits don't tend to change much so you can probably rely on the info from last year.

The wholly owned airlines are at the top of the bottom of the stack... If it's just you and you are able to ride the jumpseat, 98% of the time you'll get where you want to go within a few hours. If you are trying to travel as a family needing 3-4 seats.... just buy them seats and see the prior statement. (this is in the Delta system but I've heard the same about American, and United doesn't have any WO.)

if you aren't a 25 year captain, this is more true than you ever want to know.
