When I flew to London on United had no trouble getting on. It's a matter of which airline you use, time of day, and time of year. The real cost of flying to London is way beyond my budget. If you want to get a discounted ticket on an already cheap airline you very much run the risk of getting bumped. In the early days of Southwest flew everywhere with our discount for $25 each way. Some rowdy FedEx people taking constant trips to Vegas ruined it for the rest of us. We used to have a 90% discount with TWA. I moved from Seattle to Topeka using that for next to nothing. Shipped my stuff FedEx Express Saver with employee discount. Had all my boxes sitting inside furnished apartment when I arrived. Total move cost halfway across country? About $105 but that was 1990.The FedEx travel discount is total b.s. if a pilot’s flying stanby, he or she is ahead of you. If their neighbor is on standby, they’re ahead of you. The only chance is to fly before sunrise. Why sleep at all the night before you go?
Paying for a real ticket is worth the peace of mind.

Who Qualifies for Interline Discounted travel
What is Interline Travel
You DO get interline discounts on certain cruise lines and interline travel companies. If I were you I’d check with the individual airlines.
Space available is how interline flies.Space Available is not the same as interline discounts.
So how is retirement going, Dave? Are your grandchildren well? Still two of them?Space Available is not the same as interline discounts.
From what he has been posting it sounds like he went back to UPS. I guess being the hypocrite he is he don't know how to "just move on".So how is retirement going, Dave? Are your grandchildren well? Still two of them?
Would you want Southwest retirees to have the same privilege here?
No, UPS Airline retirees do not get Space Available travel on any airline.
