I could see this argument with an FFD regional that did not previously have a guaranteed interview at DL (like republic) but for years the top of the endeavor list has been able to interview at DL in seniority order.
I think a fence on some RJ CA positions would be much more reasonable.
if endeavor is merged with DL they would bring their longevity, which would be a huge win in and of itself for all 9E pilots, which is why it won’t happen.
To add to this; I think DL will fight tooth and nail to prevent a merger. Even if, by some miracle, we are able to bring the 76 seaters back in house; I think DL will still flow endeavor pilots over to DL so they don’t bring their longevity with them.
I very much agree with that last paragraph. DL will never let that happen. They want outsourced RJs.
