Do you fly free if you work for an airline?
The most important point to clear up is that airline employees do not get free flights; they pay for their travel unless they are commuting for work. Even though they may not be responsible for covering the airfare that you would normally pay to fly, they are responsible for paying the taxes and fees on their tickets. American Airlines Benefits Unlimited space available travel for free for all employees, domestic partners/spouses, children, parents/in-laws (small fee) and 16 buddy passes/year (small fee).The majority of airlines offer some kind of flight discount to cabin crew, which can include free domestic flights, discounted international flights and discounted travel for immediate family. The extent of these discounts can range dramatically depending on the airline so check for individual benefits.
