Yes, they do, you only have to fulfill the captain requirement for as long as Endeavor actually exists. The paperwork deal, specifically states that you do not have to re-interview for Delta employment. Providing 9E no longer exists, and Delta is hiring, you take your EtD letter that says you don't have to re-interview for employment at Delta, and take your seat in class.

Delta has to find some way out of the Bridge Agreement, wait till next year, when Delta HAS TO take anyone at Endeavor who applies to Delta. I think they thought it looked good on paper, but in practice, these agreements are a disaster for them.
