I'm not quite sure why Delta doesn't have this policy. I mean, what's a Skywest, or a Mesaba, or a Republic going to say - If you don't give our employees priority on DCI flights, were not going to fly for you? Yeah right.
You do have priority on any DCI for passenger seats. The only seat(s) that each particular carrier has priority for are the jumpseats. DCI, mainline, other DCIs, OAL...
