you are right rick, if you stay here more than 20 years you will get it, or if you are older, 55 and have 10 years of service, you will get only UAL and DAL travel benies. you will not get AA, AS. lots of guys during the pandemic left and got their retirement travel benefits, left for greener pastures.
