Delta is going ZED....From DeltaNet.....

Delta Changing to Zed for Employee Leisure Travel on Other Airlines
January 24, 2008


Effective February 1, 2008, Delta will begin changing our interline employee travel agreements to Zonal Employee Discount (referred to as ZED) agreements. The ZED program allows employees and retirees (and eligible family members) of participating carriers to utilize standardized fares based on mileage rather than discounts off of varying published revenue fares. ZED fares are generally less expensive than ID tickets and can be accepted by any carrier that has a ZED agreement with Delta allowing travel on the other airline.

Initially, ZED travel passes will be available on AS, NW, and CO airlines. Additional airlines will be added as agreements are made. Please check the GRS or KM Keyword Nonrev topic for each airline to obtain the latest information per carrier.

Please note that both ticketing and travel for these new ZED passes will not be available until February 1st, 2008.
