Airline Staff Travel
One of the perquisites that the airline industry provides its employees is free or discounted travel. Since the traveler in this case is the staff of a particular airline, the benefit is widely known as staff travel and is either offered internally within a company or by independent companies. By and large, staff travel does not bring much revenue to the airline and is hence referred to as non-revenue or non-rev in some parts of the world.
