Thread: Don't do it!

Because of previous abuse with buddy passes, my airline&#39;s employees now have to travel WITH the buddy. And if the employee doesnt board, the buddy doesnt board![/b]

I&#39;m sure a lot of people dislike that restriction but when I was with DL that was exactly my personal policy. I just used them to take people along. It was just too difficult to try to get people to grasp the process. I also had a bad experience when my sister gave some passes to her in-laws without my knowledge.

I used to use death threats and told them I would hunt them down if they messed up my pass privileges. The one thing I didn&#39;t like and still don&#39;t like about Delta&#39;s buddy pass policy is the employee or retiree can get punished if the buddy pass flyer screws up. I don&#39;t think we should have to police what they do. For the most part they are adults and should be responsible for their own actions.

It&#39;s gotten to the point where I&#39;ve always got quite a few left over when they expire. Kind of a shame but what ya gonna do?
If my daughter decides to quit Skywest to take care of her children, she can use them to come and see us.
