Is anybody else tired of non-revving? I'm to the point that I'm done trying. It seems like every single flight I try to non-rev on, HK's appear out of nowhere.

Yesterday, we had an ASA flight cancel, but Delta showed it as being completed. It was ferried back to ATL, and they showed the ferry as a completed flight even though no passengers were allowed on. I didn't know they were allowed to do that.

Ditto that! Just added 'Ad Blocker', and no more ads! Can't believe I put up with those annoying ads for so long, OR that the fix was that simple. Thanks guys.

It works great on YouTube, too. It gets rid of those ads they put along the bottom of the videos. Those ads were really annoying.

I'll tell you what I'd really like to understand. How it makes sense to upgrade SO many coach passengers to business elite on international flights! I non-rev overseas a lot and I'm always left wondering if it makes business sense to be sort of giving away the best yielding seats on the airplane. True, no revenue is actually lost in the process but if people have this happen to them often, they may decide to buy a coach ticket and hope for an upgrade next time around, instead of buying a business elite seat. That is lost revenue.

So we assuming 5 pm release so they can lock the doors and ignore the phones for the long weekend? Seems we should get paid for stressing over the AE all holiday weekend.

my sentiments exactly.......It is already there for the domestic flights. Elite fliers almost NEVER pay for a FC seat, we might as well get rid of FC altogether if nobody is going to PAY for that service.
