It only makes sense that they align their published qualifications to the standard they set in agreeing to that flow, because otherwise how can you justify requiring off the street new hires from whatever regional it may be needing to have a degree, but new hires from the Endeavor flow, not needing a degree. Now yes, you could still argue that the reason why they finally gave in, and gave Endeavor a flow is because Delta doesn't have the applicant pool they want, but beyond that, I really think people are reading into the degree thing too much. There are plenty of perfectly good pilots that have gotten turned down from Delta that have a degree. Also, why is Delta even being discussed again on a Breeze thread? They are in different leagues, you can't compare the two. They're not even competing on the same routes, or passengers, or anything.
