I'm sure Delta is great and all but they seem to put up with a lot of crap too. Some of their internal policies are whack from what I hear. And you'll have to fly with Delta Captains. Also reading their page DALPA doesn't seem much less dysfunctional than APA. They also have some short time upgrades but that seems like a once off. Junior in NYC for 10 years is no way to spend your life.
With the movement at AA someone hired now can likely hold NB CA in most bases within 3 years. You're not going to see that at DL. Maybe UA but honestly I think UA is on shakier financial ground than AA right now.
If you don't really want to work somewhere why would you go to the interview? To keep your options open? Maybe. But that's a lot of trouble to go through and you're still going to have an even bigger decision to make if you get the job.
