That remains to be seen, per the PWA 1.e.8. we should be...



Delta currently flies a fraction of what Virgin Atlantic flies between the US and Britain.
Having Delta pilots fly even just half of all DAL/VA JV flying would be a huge increase on Delta pilots part...

The difficult equation is whether DAL keeps the US Britain flying in the current transatlantic JV or establishes a new JV and breaks out that flying from the existing Transatlantic JV with AF/KLM/AZ.
Each of these scenarios will require a reset of the EASK balance in the current AF/KLM/AZ JV.

That's why it's important to understand that right now Delta is well below the goal of 50% and even well below the lowest permissible limit of 48.5%...
