My brother recently bought a very cheap ticket from New York to London on Delta for travel in September. It was too cheap to be true, actually, as it turned out to be a military fare. The ticket says "for US and NATO Military, Civil Employees, Retired Military and family members ONLY" My brother is a civil employee but not of the military - he works for a UK Government agency. My question is - will he be asked for a military ID at check-in? He's hesitant to let this very cheap ticket go and I kind of agree with him. After all, the ticket conditions say "civil employee" not "US military civil employee". What do you think? Can he get away with it? Or will be be denied boarding? Who checks these things at the airport if you check in on-line? Thanks, ps
