Mark,
A
question for all of our retired travelers, especially international non-revenue.
1. Does
any airline officially offer Business or First Class listing to a non
revenue retiree?
2. Has
any airline offered either class as a complimentary upgrade after boarding in
economy?
Thanks,

the Capt out?

Hi Mark,
Re: "FlyZed" Queries on your last blog:
We live
part-time in central Europe and frequently use eZed tickets purchased on-line.
It's very convenient for getting to and from Delta gateways and avoids having
to deal with some poor Delta agent who is not familiar with writing reduced
rate tickets --Zed, ID-90s, etc-- on other airlines.
You CAN ONLY
ACCESS THE SYSTEM VIA DELTA'S TRAVELNET ! You may use either the Internet
Explorer or Firefox browser. Both those browsers work for me, but I don't know
about others like Apple's Safari. Maybe another reader knows. Anyway, after
logging into Travelnet:
Click on
"Leisure Travel - Leisure Travel on Other Airlines"
Click on
"Other Airlines Agreement Chart" to see which airlines require use of
eZed fares. In Europe these include Air France, KLM, Lufthansa, Air Berlin,
Austrian, Finnair, and many others.
The click
onto the "myIDTravel" link. You will see that you are logged on as
YOUR NAME (DL). From there you just click "Agree" and follow the
"Next" boxes. Useful hint: Open up a separate browser window to
website of the airline you are interested in to get an idea of their route
system and schedules.
Once you
click on the airline you want to travel on, it's pretty simple. Check flights
and availability by dates. Most use smile-ly face symbols for flights that are
wide open and frowning ones that aren't. We've had good luck with both. Have
your email address and credit card ready! Once you get a passenger record
number, print it out as well as the email you will get immediately afterwards.
Then it's...
Happy,
hassle-less interline flying!

Editor: Thanks Charlie a million for reminding all that there is a
ZED connection now inside TravelNet.
That wasn’t always there but it is there now. The FlyZED.com web site is still available to
log into and view flight info and the like.
Still may be helpful for those who wish to peruse through a bunch of
schedules when off of the DALNet.

Comments - Came across this site some time back. Have never
used it, but some deals look interesting. There is link on the left side to
connect to "interline rates". Good hunting! Joel Payne B767A [ret.]
