Does this mean there is no companion tickets distributed to UA employees at all?
Any information will be appreciated.
Regards,
It probably depends on what employee group your friend is with. We still have them, but I don't give them to anyone except an ex-employee because she understands all the downsides to them.
The cost of a buddy pass is often close to that of a positive-space ticket, and it's space-available.
When my wife and I travel on a schedule, we buy tickets like everyone else. Even with 26 years won't get us on a lot of the flights we travel on.
