Is it true?

[cthennebry]

Is it true UPS employees can fly for free if theres room on a plane? I've heard rumors that you can, I know on some UPS planes there's like 3 seats lol. Just wondering if anyone has ever heard about this.

 

[hexmurph]

i work on the ramp, have never seen anyone but pilots board the plane

step right up,..have your boarding pass available

 

[brown bomber]

no carry on luggage,...we're already overloaded

Couldn't even fly for free as US Military, I doubt UPS is any different, though, while I was in the military I was routinely offered a free upgrade to first class whenever available. I feel like if I asked for something similar for working for UPS I'd be laughed at.

Yeah, I fly with UPS all over the world....their even cheaper than southwest!

About 15 years ago a PT sup told me he got a seat on a flight to World Port.

He had to go there for a training seminar.

We had a plane mechanic who worked in Louisville on the weekends and would "jumpseat" on our jet. I think I remember management going for training also being able to. So your answer is pretty much no.

You can but you have to hang on to the wings real tight.

For a small fee, that will let you ride in the wheel well.
Be careful, or the hydraulics will crush you like a bug.

And for an in flight meal they serve Christmas turkeys.

When I was active duty we could fly space available on military aircraft for $10.

Have fun on that C-130?

It was actually a C-141 and, no, it was not fun. Cold and loud.

This idea was brought up years ago(not exactly sure when).......never happened

Upstates legacy in the Air Force....lol

Isn't that just flights from Mexico to the US?

 

[Jack4343]

Sure...just remember to bring something to keep you company. I suggest this...
