That's a revenue stream Delta lost all because you just had to stick it to someone and file a grievance. I would understand if it was one of the regionals violating this part of your scope, but the smart thing to do would be to allow DPJ to fly the corporate big iron because it keeps Delta paying passengers happy to be able to fly on whatever they want and because they are paying big money to Delta in the process.

If you give these people the slightest hassle you'll never see them again, not even in the first class cabin on your jetliner. To start a scope fight with Delta Air Elite, Seagrave, Pegassus, or whoever won't accomplish anything. It's a totally different world that has nothing to do with airlines at all.
Like I said before, patch up the small hole before it becomes uncontrollable. Delta can continue with all the big biz jets they want, but they'll be flown by pilots on the Delta seniority list.
