United has a 1.6:1 WB advantage over Delta today, but that ratio will change rapidly through 2017. Both airlines are in the midst of renew/replace/retire cycles with their wide body fleets and within 18 months the ratio will be closer to 1:1 AND Delta pilots still have a superior profit sharing plan.
Not to confuse you with facts, but only the 747 and 777 pay top rate at DAL. And they have 0 of them on order. So yes "technically" they may increase their 2 aisle ac, they are losing pay replacing them whereas our replacements pay the same. And based on current orders there will be nowhere close to the same number or ratio of twin aisle planes.
DAL has a better profit sharing because they get DC on top. Otherwise it's the same except they are making more money at DAL. Again not trying to confuse you with facts.
