They did not get the new training program approved by the FAA in time to pre post it as required by the contract. There will be training in March but only those pilots still on the last cycle. If your on the new cycle you will not be able to attend in the early month. The vast majority of Delta's training costs are fixed. There is little cost savings to deferring the training and it reduces line pilots available to the company as we ramp up flying in April and May for the summer. That increases greenslips.
