Hi all,
I hope everyone is having a great day. I am writing this here because I am hesitant to contact the airline at this time. My dad who has been an employee at American and has been there for at least 12 years or so recently had emergency surgery on an abdominal hernia he obtained while at work. I am currently collaborating with his physician to ensure that he can get some sort of disability from the airline. He is not officially on disability yet to my knowledge, but the airline also has us just doing paperwork proving his disability. According to his bosses at work, they are still willing to hold his position if the paperwork is approved.
However, the intention of this post is not to give a sob story, but to ask if anyone knows if his employee benefits, including nonrevenue travel is still accessible to us as a family? I am curious as to whether or not anyone else has experienced this issue, but if you have and have any advice or tips I would appreciate it.
Thank you all for your consideration and please post if you have any information as to if my dad still has his employee benefits at this time?
