    Non-rev passengers get to fly only when there are empty seats. Should there be a shortage of meals, non-rev passengers go without. They take nothing from the full paying passenger. And, at least at my airline, a non-rev will be in serious trouble should they detract in any way from a paying passenger's flight experience. I have lost count of the times that I have assisted regular passengers while non-revving and other non-revs have done more than I. I have transported lost bags miles out of my way so that regular passengers could get to their homes with children rather than waiting at the airport. I have sat and calmed passengers that have had mental breakdowns and panic attacks which prevented an unscheduled landing. Most non-revs are there to help when necessary.I have seen a non-rev mechanic leave his vacationing family, take off his tie and roll up his sleeves and dive into an aircraft engine where no maintenance was available thus preventing a delay or cancellation. So don't begrudge the non-rev too much.

    What non-rev passengers do is cost money to the airline, thus passing it on to the paying customer. Paying for a ticket means paying baggage handlers, ticket agents, maintenance of planes, fuel, food, drinks, etc etc etc. To say non rev passengers dont impact the cost to paying customers is total BS.
