    My grandfather is a retired Delta employee and designated me as his companion. It's obviously a touchy subject, so I don't feel right asking him, but do I still have use of the pass after he is no longer living? Does anyone know?

    HI! I work for Delta and that's a really good question that has never been asked. I searched our HR manuels and personel manuels and could not find anything specific. I would think that as long as the employee (retiree) is unmarried and shows you as his companion you would be able to continue to use the passes. I think the best thing you could do, without asking your retiree, is to contact the Pass Bureau via e-mail (they won't take a non-employee call) at
    ESC.Delta@delta.com Provide your retiree's PPR number (the nine digit number on your pass card) the date of employement and your name. They should be able to give you a definitive answer.

    Hope all that helped! ;-)

    I hate to say it, but if you are, there will someday come a time when a living, *active* employee can't get on a flight because there are dead folks with high seniority companion passes floating around.

    The airline that I work for, the active working employee has a higher boarding priority than the retiree. So if an employee has a hire date of 2005, he or she will be boarded before a retiree with a hire date of 1965.
