vx more than ba.
NOW I WONDER WHY THAT IS
answers on a postcard.
im certainly not complaining
towers00 - Staff Travel is a priviledge, not a right, even when positioning on company duty. Coming into a forum populated by people who pay their way, and then boasting about your perks is tactless, thoughtless and inconsiderate. Frankly, I also doubt the accuracy of everything that you claim. I don't believe that your attitude and comments accurately reflect those held by other airline professionals, many of whom have a rather greater depth of experience than your 5 years at a regional airport.
Your post is discourteous to other users of this forum, who are by and large, a highly experienced group of airline customers. The only reason that I have left your post visible, is that it allows these users to fully undrestand what a complete 
you are.
