That has nothing to do with the question here finis. Management and DALPA have been crying poor mouth about how tough the revenue environment is and how thin their margins are. Many of us have been saying that management CHOOSES where they attempt revenue gains. Bag fees are just one example that didn't even exist a few years ago.

It doesn't matter that DAL might be break even without baggage fees. It only matters that DAL chooses to NOT explore other revenue possibilities for the express purpose of paying their pilot investors who saved the company from liquidation. Your constant apology for management might serve your own personal desire, but it's a recipe for Delta pilots to continue to operate under what is close to the worst overall contract in our industry.
