Sorry, but that's just plain wrong. There are two types of pension plans:

1. Defined benefit pension plans (what Delta used to have), and;

2. Defined contribution pension plans (what Delta has now)

Both are pensions. They just operate differently. A 401k is a completely separate kind of plan that falls under different regulations.
