Hello my dear delta experts. I have questions regarding delta companion pass (non rev.).
First of all, my sister in law got a job with delta and will start training from 29th of this month (September). Her husband (my brother) is already a delta employee for many years. Now the question is this: can she put me on her ppr as her travel companion? as her hubby doesn't need her benefits.
now I have done my research into this: seems like the difference between buddy pass and companion pass is the following:
I get to fly S3 and will have 6 S2 benefits. I will pay just a fraction less than buddy pass fares but I will not pay fuel surcharges. I can fly unlimited.
Now here are my other questions:
can i fly the delta code share airlines to fly to regions where delta doesn't fly their own planes? Example : aeromexico within mexico (code share routes), colombia (avianca) in colombian domestic routes, european airlines (code share routes) and continental to EWR from santiago (note: dominican republic related).
Would I have to pay extra for stop overs within my line of route to final destination and back?
Could the merger with northwest will change the rules for us?
Please add what could be beneficial to my knowledge. I know I am not asking all the questions here so please help.
Please folks, these are specific questions targeted towards delta airlines employees or airline employees who have first hand knowledge in this matter. I do not want google researched answers, I have done all my that already. My brother has never asked questions regarding this matter because he never needed to add a companion. It seems his info is very limited.
Thanks in advance.
