That seems more like a concession as most ALPA carriers do not allow that as a matter of fact in the contract, lord knows Delta mgmt would love to have the pilots either 1. Fly on vacation or even 2. Sell vacation back. That's one concession too far though for DALPA to have accepted even during BK contract.
Not sure what was said at the negotiating table but it was definetly presented as a benefit during the road shows. Nothing like having scheduling options.

ALPA also fought to have a Base Chief in PDX. This is not DALPA.
