As a rule no (although they do serve some small markets in the SW that we don't) but DL does, predominately with outsourced RJ's. But that is supposed to give us a revenue advantage. And it does...our per pilot revenue is higher than theirs is. So why should that revenue producing difference be subsidized with significantly less pay and days off for the same portion of work (small narrowbody domestic)?
