can't speak for YX but OO has such a small % of lifers I think they could be outweighed by more junior pilots if delta ties a flow down to DGI style interview in seniority order. I would guess about 10-15% of their pilots are lifers and the rest are trying to leave one way or another.
or DL could tie those 76 seaters to whatever company accepts it
or just accept 35 fewer RJs for the foreseeable future. (this one seems likely given their attitude toward growing flights recently)
as for the LOA, if it dies then so do those 35 175s
