Guess what? They didn't t run out then, they won't in 2020. Be prepared to fly elsewhere than the majors, just in case.

I'm not going to argue with you about it because there is clearly a misunderstanding between what I was trying to say and what you interpreted.
My main point is this: If you want to be at a major airline you probably have a better chance at making it there in the next decade than at any other time in history.
I'm not saying that Delta is going to run out of apps.
