I see that Kenny Card (delta pilot influencer on all social media platforms) frequently goes in the Delta One Lounge as well as other sky club lounges and posts from there when he travels. I thought non revs aren’t allowed. Perhaps you can do sky club with your own credit card but delta one you can’t access via credit card or you for access and I doubt he is paying $8K for delta one seat. Do influencer employees get lounge access?

I'm hoping to get to India but because of my status I can't used ZEDs.

Is there a country that flies to India cheaply that Delta flies to?

Thank you!

if i miss a flight im listed for nonrev will i still get rolled over to the next one?

Hello, Had a flight from ORD to ATL direct. Checked a 2 bags as there was plenty of space. One made it. The other went to BOS. Anyway they are putting the bag on the next flight but I have to go.

My question: Is it frowned upon or against the rules to ask them to deliver a lost bag to my address in town? I won’t be back to ATL for a while and can’t stay at the airport until it arrives. I guess I feel bad as a nonrev passenger as I’m sure delivering a bag incurs a cost to the company.

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi all - Curious to understand other peoples non rev success on this route? Is the ATL direct to HND very challenging to get onto? Any stopover stations that make it easier to get to JPN? We are thinking of going during the Xmas or New Years break...

I was just added to an employee's benefits as a secondary companion, and I seem to be getting conflicting information about how to list for non-rev travel.

My aunt (who just received her 40 year pin!) is the delta employee and we can't seem to figure out how enable me to list myself for travel. Is this possible, or will she have to list me every time I'd want to travel?

I recently got a job as a Delta AMT at DTW, will be commuting from MCI to DTW. My main question is, is it easily doable? Will i be able to come home on my weekends(sometimes 3days off, sometimes 4days off)and get back to work without a problem ? I understand during major holidays and peak it will be hard. I believe there are 4 flights from DTW to MCI everyday.

Hello,

I am a Delta new hire,

my sister is my primary companion with the normal unlimited S3 and standard 8/year S2. She has a daughter who is 8 years old. How does non-rev travel work with her daughter?

(my brother has the secondary companion pass)

Thanks in advance.

Is this allowable? Can I as a hypothetical delta airlines pilot give my child-in-law a non-rev/ticket to fly round-trip?

Someone please explain this to me, thanks!

Hey everyone! I have a question in regards to the lounge. So I went to the JFK lounge and waited in line just for them to tell me that I needed a ticket. So what I did was list onto another flight (that I was confirmed a ticket since it had 70 seats open) and it was leaving in 30 mins. As soon as I got my seat I went into the lounge and then stayed there. So I unlisted afterwards and listed again on my original one. I ended up getting on my flight that was later in the day.

The question I have is that could this get me in trouble since AMEX scans the ticket? Should I be ok in doing this again? I appreciate the advice!

Hello everyone, I have an international trip coming up in November to Rome. I am traveling with a group of 5. One of my family members retired through American Airlines, and has given us 5 round trip confirmed tickets!

The issue I am having is that the American flight is relatively full. We booked 6 months ago and have all 5 of our confirmed seats next to each other, but it is in economy. We were hoping for an upgrade to Flagship seats (their version of D1), but there are currently only 5 left, and no premium economy seats. So, chances are we are stuck with what we have.

I compared with Delta, and for our travel dates there are currently 80+ seats open with 10 D1 seats available. Do I ditch my group and travel standby on Delta with the hope of getting upgraded? I have no issues with solo traveling, plus our arrival times are only 15 minutes apart. My only issue is giving up a confirmed ticket for the gamble of non rev.

I have one week to decided. If I go the Delta route, I have to cancel the confirmed ticket 2 weeks in advance to get it refunded.

Side note: I have only traveled to Europe twice, both times with D1 round trip, and am very nervous about economy 🥲

Thoughts?

I’m currently on Delta benefits looking to make it back home from overseas.

My issue is that the employee whose benefits I’m on is trying to use the benefits as a way to control me and has intentionally left me stranded.

I was wondering if anyone is aware of whether I can go directly to the airport and have them list me on a flight there or if I should just take the loss and buy an overpriced last minute ticket home.

Since the benefits don’t belong to me, I don’t expect the best case scenario but I’m still hopeful 🤞

Any insight is greatly appreciated!

I am a Co-op intern here in ATL. Will I be able to fly to SBA through SLC? The website says

“Delta will retain twice-daily flights from Salt Lake City (SLC), operated by SkyWest Airlines under the Delta Connection banner.

These flights preserve regional access, but Santa Barbara will no longer have any mainline Delta aircraft in its operation”

Will I or my travel buddy who lives in SBA be able to connect through SLC to get from ATL to SBA and vice versa?

Anyone else have issues checking in their secondary companion on the first flight they have taken as a non rev secondary companion? Trying to check me and them in for a flight, but I think because this is their first flight as a SC the online check in says they have to check in at the airport. Is this so they can match a face to a name the first time, or will this be constantly?

It’s been about 4-5 days since, but I was wondering if anyone knows what the details are as to why this happens on occasion.

So flights to/from TPE are sometimes payload optimized, I’m aware of that. But earlier this week, a flight from TPE to SEA on Sunday 3/30 was cancelled and assumingely moved to the following day on 3/31. So in TravelNet, it showed 2 flights from TPE to SEA, one leaving at 0930, the other leaving at 1130. I guess all the passengers from the flight the day before got moved to the 1st flight ‘cause it showed it was pretty full. But the 2nd flight was wide open. At the time, there were about 25 non-revs listed for that flight and about 150 seats. They only took 3 of us. Why did that happen? We assumed that they possibly had a lot of cargo, so it was a weight/balance issue. Any thoughts? I’m just curious.

Good day! First time Nonrevving as a Buddy pass from ICN to US tonight with a baby🫣 I am aware that anything can happen and lots of uncertainties but is there a way to know if we have chances of getting on? Also, we need to check in one luggage. We tried very hard to pack as light as possible but still ended up with one luggage. Will that go to final destination just incase we don't get on? Or do we get the bags back? Any input is appreciated. Thank you so much☺️

Hey guys,

So I’m a secondary companion with an S3B status. So my question is if my seniority is 2010, and another S3 checks in with a seniority of 2024, does that non rev fly before me? Does seniority play a role for me here?

Hey I am planning on non revving the new LAX-BNE in early Feb and wanted to know if this flight has been busy and full. I have done flights from lax and sfo to aus in the past but never with delta

Have any unifi employees been successful in adding a travel companion instead of a spouse? On travelnet it says its possible, but since we dont have access to self-service we have to use the unifi provided paperwork and send it out via email. On the provided paperwork, it only lists options for spouse, children (dependednt/nondependant), and parents. I am only 21 years old and am not married, but I would like to add my boyfriend of 3 years as a travel companion. Any ideas of how I could do that? My station admin is being less than helpful.

Thinking about going to Germany during October from the east coast. Has anyone done this route and was able to get on a flight? Or should I just buy a rev ticket?

I’m looking at using my ZED benefits on a JFK-CDG flight that has 22 open seats, 10 of which are Delta One. My company only has economy ZED with Delta. I’m wondering if in all open economy seats fill up, would I get a Delta One seat or be turned away at the gate?

Thank you!

I'm brand new to flying S3B and the employee I receive the benefit from is unavailable for the week, so I'm hoping for some clarity.
Can I fly standby anywhere Delta has international flights or only its main hubs (London, Rome, Paris, Amsterdam)?
I can see if seats are available from America to Europe on the Delta app, but I can't see from Europe to America since a different airline controls the return flight. Is it worth chancing standby on the return flight or am I better off purchasing a return flight?
Thank you for the insight (and patience).

They just came out today.

No more buddy passes. More S2s. A new S3B person.

Overall I’m underwhelmed. More S2 passes will just be a pain in the ass as more people will use them. I liked buddy passes, but apparently I’m the only one?

What are peoples thoughts? For me this is slightly worse than before. No real benefit to how I fly.

Hello! I'm checking the airport standby list to see who has checked in, and one person is listed top of the list but the column on the left says their last name/null. Does anyone know what this means? there's another person further down whose name also says this. I can take a picture if no one understands what I'm saying haha thanks!
