Retiree from Bankrupt Carriers?

I am a retired Captain from Aloha Airlines (retired 2003) after 19 years at Eastern (refused to work for Lorenzo). Unfortunately, with both now gone from the scene, not a lot of non-rev opportunities. Any information on any carriers or organizations that still provide non-rev benefits for those of us whose carriers have disappeared would be appreciated.

Wish I had better news.

Welcome aboard Idwill. My suggestion is to contact the retiree associations of both Aloha and Eastern. I'm thinking that's just the type of information they would have.

check out www.airlineretirees.com it is a travel group of defunct airlines retirees that have negotiated nonrev travel on participating airlines...

If you want to know if Southwest still gives you nonrev opportunities, call our Pass Bureau at (800) 622-5865, they may be able to give you this type of information. Good luck!!

Capt, I have a different non rev listing number for WN. Is this 800 number for both info and listing?

Mig, pass bureau, automated listing/enquiry and "actual person" listing/enquiry are all diff numbers!
