I know multiple people that made the jump from ASA to Delta. The bias is nonsense. It's someone trying to protect their ego and come up with an explanation for why they haven't gotten the call. Just like the people that think it's because they are male, or Caucasian, or weren't military.
Put the app in. Nothing wagered, nothing gained. And 40 isn't too old. Yeah, you won't retire as an A350 captain, but what's so bad about narrowbody captain making $250k with a 16% 401k contribution? Sure sound better than ASA.
