Parents go at a slightly lower priority and get 24 one way passes/year. So the way I explained that to my parents, that's 6 trips/year for them to go together.

After 2 years, you get buddy passes which deduct from your 24 parent bank too. Buddy passes cost a little bit more and are lowest standby level.

If your parents are like mine, you'll have no buddy passes to give out. I started in August and my parents have used up almost all their passes. Thats only over the course of a few months. They don't know what they'll do next year when they have to spread the passes out over a full year, instead of a few months.

Oh and pass banks refill every Jan 1 and anything not used is NOT rolled over to the next year. Part of the reason my parents are traveling so much before the new year.

Well that's one good thing in working for Eagle, you can have your parents travel & see the world...... Chances are that very few can afford to take 6 trips per year......

Do you know if the parents, spouse & children travel bennies are restricted to Economy class or are they eligible for upgrade, also is it limited to domestic or can they fly International also.......

They are eligible for first. They need to follow the first class rules, and the tickets are more expensive.

hey guys. I had posted this question some time back but wanted to see if I could get a better response from the people out here.. feel its an important question.

for those who have recently got on without the RJ course, is the 800TT and 100 Multi the only requirement in terms of hours for getting interviewed? or is the 250 PIC mentioned on their website also a Minimum requirement?

did all of you have the 250 PIC before you were able to interview? thanks so much.

I had more than 250 pic. How can you have 800 hours and not have the pic? Pretty much everything after private is pic. Only initial multi, complex, tailwheel, etc wouldn't be pic. How did you get your time? Just trying to help you in case something wasn't logged in right.
