From a union perspective, I had hoped we might require ALPA membership to fly Delta pax.
Having been at at DCI carrier for 10 years, I can attest that DCI carriers have no interest in being part of the DAL team. Many see DAL as a hinderance to their QOL and growth. (short sided on their part ) so why consider them in any equation IMHO. Also, ALPA can not represent pilots at a major and be sure the interests of the regional guys are being addressed as well. This conflict is not good in the long term. Capital wasted on this is not worth it in the long term.
