In an internal memo sent on Monday and, CEO Ed Bastian rewarded Delta employees with two travel passes that can be used to fly on any Delta Air Lines flight, international or domestic. Employees both currently working and those on a leave of absence will receive the passes.

The "positive space" passes are nearly equivalent to a confirmed booking, allowing employees a guaranteed seat if one is available, regardless of how full or expensive the flight is. But those benefits have their limitations, especially around the holidays. A novice "non-revver," as they're known, will quickly learn not to count on open seats being available on popular routes during major travel holidays including Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Independence Day. And even if there is, someone more senior at the company will be given first dibs.

Ironically, long-haul international flights are among the easiest on which to get a seat when flying standby. Since long-haul international flights utilize the largest aircraft in an airline's fleet, they often have enough availability to accommodate a few free flyers. If coach fills up, a non-revenue flyer could still be given a seat in business class or premium economy class, if it's available.
