I'd be interested to know which Airlines out there in the same situation give the subsidiary company employees DOJ staff travel on the same priority?
I sure Qantas doesn't give Jetstar employees the same priority on QF and they are 100% part of the "Qantas Group"
Where exactly is this precedence you KA people use as an excuse to make you feel better?
Because if you can show me with facts that this is the normal procedure that is followed around the world by most legacy career Airlines then I'll back off a bit.
We have NOT merged the two Airlines yet.
