Was talking to an FO in LAX last week who was waiting on a class date at big D. Said he knew a few guys who got put into holding patterns at Delta and came to NK in the interim, now they are just waiting for the green light.

Heard of another last month one who was bidding (successfully) upgrade with a confirmed Delta class, talk about covering your bases.

I don’t think it will be enough to make an operational impact, but it would be interesting to compare an exit interview with a follow up a year later.
