Hello All
I’m trying to list parents on delta for non rev. It’s charging me a yield fare I believe. Is this normal? All my other buddies at other regionals parents fly at no charge domestically, if it’s international there is of course tax. This is kind of disappointing as some international non rev on delta is the same almost as a confirmed ticket.

United charges a segment fee of $35-40 (domestic) and I'm not sure about American as I haven't put my parents on them yet.

What "other regionals" are you talking about? The only one that offers better benefits than us on DL is Endeavor pilots. We have the same as Skywest/Compass/XJT/GoJet pilots. No one else has DL bennies.

At SkyWest, parents flying on Delta don’t pay, but there is imputed income I believe.

Each regional partner negotiates flight benefits with mainline partners. I can confirm that SkyWest does have different benefits than Compass, and it sounds like the benefits are different than Republic.

Republic UA travel benefits used to be horrible, then they renegotiated them with United. Delta benifits aren’t that bad, and they will never equal WOs. SkyWest probably negotiated a better deal for their employees.
The travel benifits are usually negotiated into contract with majors, so I wouldn’t expect any improvements anytime soon, unless republic pays.

One spouse (wife/husband or common law (with documentation)) or domestic partner, children 24/26yr or younger if full time students, and your parents for all three partners.
AA allows one travel companion in lieu of spouse/domestic partner (this can a girl/boy friend or just a normal friend)
UA allows one friend in lieu of spouse plus an extra friend (same as AA)
DL allows two sets of parents (parents divorced but remarried)
None of them allow in-laws as parents though.

Is this still the case? Would signing up a sibling have to go under the “friend” category?
