Maybe not at the 15 year CA level, but there are several other seat/longevity points where this is true when you factor in total compensation (retirement, profit sharing, and/or bonuses). Regarding the aforementioned 100k compensation difference consider that there are several DL A320 FO's making shy of $200k/yr. Or, compare 8 year CA's, a $50+/hr difference, + DC + Bonuses.

*I mentioned Delta only to respond to the quoted question, not necessarily to suggest DL compensation at NK.
