real scenario, happened this week.
Is there tax on that? wow https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/news/delta-reporetly-offered-passengers-almost-2410k-to-switch-flights/ar-AAZ5AuN |
| Oh wow. Heck yes. Situation depending ofc. |
| 100% yes. And bonus if we were flying to the in laws, I would send my DH and kids ahead and I’d take the money and enjoy alone time. |
| Heck yes. And, send the family on the flight and spend the vacation gloriously alone in your house! |
| Wow, heck yes - it looks like they needed 8 people? If my 4 person family got 40k wow. |
Article said if you had Apple pay you could get the 10K on the spot |
+1. I basically hope this happens every time I go on a non-urgent flight |
+ 2 Without hesitation, I’d take the $10K |
| Who wouldn't? I can't imagine a situation where my getting from Point A to Point B is so urgent that I couldn't wait a day and pocket $10K. |
| Why did they need to pay 10K? Surely, there were people who would change for far less. |
| Yup |
I would set up Apple Pay for that (which would be a bigger accomplishment than getting my plane seat — you could probably con me out of that with a well rehearsed sob story tbh). |
| In a hot second. |
| Yes. |
They must have needed a lot of volunteers. Everyone gets paid what the last person is offered. On a recent flight we were it got up to $1600 pp but started at $600 I think. |
