What the hell are you basing "industry standard on"? US & Delta, thats all!
DAL scope re-capture, eliminated DCI jobs, seats and number of passengers traveling on DCI carriers while expanding mainline flying. 76 seaters were already on property. Some get hung up on the plane. It is all about seat numbers and number of DCI pilots flying Delta passengers and they all have been significantly reduced. Plus the language and metrics tied to all of the DCI have been improved. (ie no turbo props)
So where did DAL lower the bar?
Clean your house set the BAR higher than what DAL did and maybe there will be some constructive argument.
