DAL total revenue = $31.75 Billion
SWA net income = $459 million
SWA total revenue = $12.1 billion
So, just by having ALPA start to manage expectations, we went from first to last in best company to work for.
Not to mention that Delta's overall financial position is still horrible. We have massive amounts of debt and a giant bill for fleet replacement of our antique fleet thats going to come due in the next 10 years. SW has none of those issues.
