No, it won't, but as pilot pay for regional aircraft continues to increase it makes less sense to maintain an entire company infrastructure outside of what already exists inside of a mainline carrier, hence it becoming cheaper to operate the aircraft in house.

Delta already has rates in its current contract for CRJ900s, and they're a lot more than what Endeavor guys currently get, even with the retention bonuses.
