Non-Rev Travels

Hello and welcome to Non-Rev Travels! I started traveling standby about two years ago when my husband took a ramp job with an airline. We enjoy seeing where the plane takes us and have learned plenty from our travels. My husband and I have visited London, Costa Rica, and many other destinations both domestically and internationally using our travel privileges. As travel lovers, we find our flight benefits invaluable. We are able to make so many special memories on our trips and fill our lives with new experiences. Non-Rev Travel has opened up the world to us and allowed us to explore in a way we never thought we could. It is now possible to jet somewhere for lunch or fill a free weekend with a new place.

I started this blog because there was a steep learning curve for us, as non-rev travelers. We are hoping that this resource can help other employees begin non-rev life! My husband and I met in college while studying music, and we still spend time performing as freelance musicians on the side of our full time jobs. I am a journeyman wireman with the IBEW. My husband has advanced to a corporate instructor position with Piedmont Airlines. We both play in the Brevard Philharmonic trumpet section. Between our day jobs, the gigs, the traveling, and our favorite cat, “Whiskers”; we live a fulfilling and adventurous life.
