Kidding aside, how about same story but on a DH?
When I was a FO, one CA called up an entire set of 3 FAs who were DHing in the back and then told them it was a good idea to check in with the CA when DHing. They were already sitting in the back 15 prior to push and all 3 did the walk of shame to the flight deck.
The way I see it, nonrev is a company benefit you’re using for pleasure. DH is a contract/ticket between you and the company. Only a JSer is a privilege and should check in with the CA and politely ask for a ride. In all cases, I’d let at least one FA know I’m a crew / potential ABP.
