Why would an airline offer discounts for personal travel just because someone is a teacher?
Rather simple, but if you read through the posts another poster decided to attack me for asking the simple question.
I went on further to explain how fabric stores or office supply stores might offer discounts because teachers are notorious for purchasing things for the classrooms at these types of stores. Back to school gives these businesses a big boost with supply lists (in some schools not all).
I completely understand that anyone can turn down any discount. Not sure why you feel the need to explain that.
And here you are accusing that I may not be a teacher because you didn't like my question.
Again I will ask, why would an airline offer discounts for personal travel just because someone is a teacher?
Unions negotiate deals, I can possibly see that happening, but an airline saying any teacher (regardless of union affiliation) gets a discount is something I just don't understand.
I also wonder why you keep calling me out directly. I understand we disagree. I also understand it is easier for you to do so under the cloak of anon (and changing anon at that). But really, you are making this personal.
Maybe I should make up a screen name for you and start using it to address you.....hmmmmm
