Korean Air, Air France, SkyWest, ASA, RAH, Alaska, Silver , Horizon and a million others also "fly DL passengers" so should we automatically hire all of them without an interview? But wait, SkyWest also "flies United passengers" and Horizon also "flies Alaska passengers" and for that matter, DL "flies Alaska and Air France passengers" so should we all just slide on over anywhere in the industry we want without an interview? Weeeeeeee!

Back to reality. Its a different company, period. The sooner you can accept that the happier you will be.

We've all heard of the vocal minority at Pinnacle that, after not getting hired at DL, pitched massive fits in public about hating the company etc. Its clear at that point that they should NEVER have been hired there. No injustice, no irony, no travesty. You want a job at any DIFFERENT airline, prepare network and interview for it. Or wait for a flow, etc, that's fine too. But you're NOT entitled to it. Ever.
