Thread: Hierarchy

There is only one scenario where a buddy would be ahead on DL and that would be using One Great Team passes. In that case, the employee can choose anyone to accompany them. Buddy would be like employee family for those flts only. One RT / 2 pax.
This could not be the case here, because those 2 would have positive space coach and be upgradable . There are only 2 given (from the merger--we're using ours for South Africa in a few wks) We can be upgraded before any other nonrevs, very helpful for JNB outbound.
Nice of your folks, but sounds like the gate agent shouldn't have tolerated any lip from the senior employee. If you know for certain, I'd write it up.
More than once, I have given my seat to another employee--in uniform/commuting (when I was flying for recreation)
PS--do you (and parents) fly as S3 on all DL conx/mainline?
