Again, no one is disputing Endeavor's value and importance to the corporation. But this is about Delta pilot retirement benefits being eroded by this change.
For context, Comair and ASA both received identical pass travel as mainline employees when those airlines were wholly owned. I used to travel as an S2/S3 my first few years at ASA.
