I don't think it matters if you are domestic or int'l. I think you just pay $12.50 each way for coach and $25 for first class. Unless you use one of your vacation passes, then its free coach or first and domestic or int'l.

$50 annual fee for Delta. After that its free domestic and international as often as you want to ride. They will always seat you in first class with no fee provided there are seats available. The ocean crossing make that a huge benefit as you are essentially getting a $7000 seat for nothing or a small tax.

At PDT we get same benefits as mainline. Unlimited free domestic, Intl you pay taxes. Upgrades cost $20 domestic $100 Intl. 3 vacation passes a year. 8 buddy passes (cost based on a zone fare). Parents pay a nominal fee but have unlimited travel. Employee and parents do not pay baggage fees. Buddy passes do unless traveling with employee or parents.

Comair receives the same bennies as mainline Delta. For employees and dependants: Unlimited S-3 priority days; 6 S-2 priority days annually, and 18 free Transoceanic days. International taxes deducted from your pay. Parents get 18 Free S-3B days and have to pay yield fare($.03.5/mi) for transoceanic. Oh and there international taxes get deducted from your pay as well.
From what I've been hearing from friends at Delta and DCI, they are going to stick with the Delta nonrev bennies post merger. Mesaba and Compass will receive the same bennies as Delta mainline.

Free for coach and like 32 for first, 9E used to be wholly owned by NW and were sold. Dont know why they would buy them back but who knows this day and age.

Thanks..I should have included to say that I meant after the merger with DL.

Yeah, I'm not sure. I've never used CAL for int'l.

Last year they were supposed to implement those silly yield fare charges on mainline but I guess that was forgotten. A lot of people were upset about it and had some pretty big beef with the whole situation. I'm glad it never went through. And I'm glad that ASA makes such an effort to ensure employees and their families get free travel privileges with the company and are prioritized over Delta employees. That makes those real senior triple 7 captains extremely mad when my wife bumps him.

That's going to be freakin crazy when that goes through. As if the non rev system has not grown out of itself. The smorgasbord of non-revs some days just amazes me. Soon we'll fall into the S3(f)1A2B priority when they get it all figured out. I mean, all employees, spouses, dependents, parents, retirees, their kids, parents, and spouses, jumpseaters, and buddy passes of all DCI carriers, Airlink, NWA and Deltas will all have to be prioritized. I don't want to be the guy to figure that one out.
