"Comat?"
Hi, I have been retired for the last 11 years and was just
wondering if Delta still allows employees or retirees to ship items ...i.e.
Comat?
Thanks, Ed Geiger, Captain Retired

Hi Mark,
Here is the answer to your question. T hx Paul
Hi Paul,
I don’t believe that this still applies, but
we do have the 75%
discount with FedEx that is available to employees and retirees.
Thanks,
Kelvin

Info
Mark this might
be of interest to Retirees/Spouses/Survivors
Project: IGNITE pass travel poll results released
January 10, 2013
The results of Project: IGNITE’s recent DeltaNet poll on
changes to pass travel policies have been tallied, and several of the proposals
recommended by the pass travel working team received strong support from Delta
employees and retirees.
Four of the five proposed policy changes received
overwhelming support and will be implemented in the future, but because of the
impact to current systems and processes the implementation date is still to be
determined. That date will be communicated as soon as possible. This includes
extending dependent travel privileges to the age of 24 for full-time students
and children who serve
in the military, alignment of travel while on approved personal leave to S3B
standby priority just like all other leaves, and permitting pass riders flying
on a Fly Confirmed ticket to standby for a free upgrade using their standby priority code for
retirees.
However, the recommended retiree policy changes of providing
an allotment of six priority standby passes that would allow them to be on the
standby list ahead of other retirees and unaccompanied parents and
non-dependents will not be pursued due to the high number of votes in
disagreement. The feedback to date will be taken into further consideration and
re-surveyed next year for a different solution to address retiree travel concerns.
Note:
Retirees will have to be alert next year when Delta re-surveys for a different
solution !!!!!

S2 Priority Flight Days
December 31, 2012
Eligible employees and their spouse/domestic
partner/travel companion and dependent children receive six S2 Priority Flight
Days each year on your pass eligibility date (unused S2 Flight Days cannot be
carried over). For those days when you want to enhance your chances of clearing
the standby list, you can use the S2 standby code. Prior approval is not
required, just save this standby code for when you really need it.
What happens if the S2 Priority Flight Days are exceeded by
any pass rider?
If a pass rider exceeds allotments, the
primary pass rider will be penalized $150 per day exceeded for domestic travel
and $300 per day exceeded for transoceanic travel. Unauthorized use of S2
Priority Flight Days may also result in suspension of pass privileges and/or
administrative action, up to and including termination of employment.
