Smart move. Delta will increasingly be used as a training ground while awaiting SWA, FDX, UPS and the high paying foreign airlines. Get used to it. Management couldn't care less.

I have been creeping this thread for a long time now with nothing to contribute. I just have to ask though Carl why are you so in love with SWA? Also why so much hate towards DAL? I am very close to someone who was most likely hired around the time you were at NWA and they love the new changes, mostly more than the old NWA ways... Now there are some complaints ( pay mostly but who isnt upset about that) but the rest is pretty minimal ( Sorry I do not have specifics). Regardless, as someone who someday wants to fly at DAL as my 1st choice and not SWA. I can't help but wonder what is so bad about being a 747 Captain at Delta... Sorry not really a useful post but I am very curious.
