That is a completely different relationship that DL has with VS vs us at Pinnacle. The meat and potatoes of this bridge agreement is about Pinnacle pilots getting jobs at Delta. This agreement doesnt set any precedent with regard to int'l codeshare/joint venture partners that wasn't already present before it. It doesn't violate your scope clause at all.

Furthermore, Delta has no standing to exert the same kind of power over VS as it does with us. DL wants/needs VS because they want/need acces to Heathrow. They can't whipsaw VS with anyone else. DL doesn't need Pinnacle, per se. We are quite disposable. That being said, since we will now be a wholly owned subsidiary again, does DL not have the right to negotiate with our MEC directly?
