However, if there were "lifers" they would not necessarily have to bid over to Delta (if we were to adopt a System Seniority Number annexation of their list). Sounds like they might not want to. If I were a senior Captain on a familiar jet with a girl friend in Jackson Mississippi (just kidding about the last part).
It's unfortunately true. Delta hiring is finding out what make up the seniors there which is likely similar to other regionals. They are mostly stuck there for a reason with of course a few exceptions. The liability involved would be interesting to see given how bad so many have blown the screening yet go back to fly delta pax.
