The S3A retiree vacation passes work that way, I personally think this is a great compromise. I’m guessing Cog has a DOH before just about every endeavor employee and could have used that as a way to go ahead of them. But (and this is a serious question, not rhetorical) why should an active employee who exclusively works for delta go behind someone who has no current affiliation to DL?
Because s/he is an active employee of a
different airline. S/he is not an employee of Delta. Otherwise s/he would be on the Delta Pilot Seniority List.
If you don’t believe a Delta Pilot retiree has an affiliation with DL then I don’t know what to tell you other than I believe you are wrong. If there was no affiliation then there would be no pass benefits etc.

Edit: I got no problem with EDV pilots using this to get to/from work. It’s the rest of it that bothers me.
