Hi, first and foremost - I guess we should get acquainted as I am hoping to make this outlet a regular source of humor and observation of my privilege as a "non-revenue" generating passenger. My name is Doug I am so fortunate and happy to be in a wonderful relationship with an airline pilot. One of those "perks" is the opportunity to travel...as a "non-rev" passenger. Sure, glamorous and awesome as it sounds (and usually is)...one must realize that a NonRev is a Standby passenger on EVERY flight. A Standby passenger is the LAST person to get a seat on a flight, if in fact there are any seats left to give. Getting from point A to point B can be a challenge sometimes and can include trips across the country just to get back home...but I am fortunate that I get to travel, that I get to fly as often as I do...and that I haven't purchased an airline ticket since...well...it's been a while. :)
So, in an effort to pass some of my free time in airports, I am here to publish my observations, my adventures all while protecting the innocent as much as possible. Ladies and gents, let's prepare for departure!
