At Delta, our int'l flying has gone very junior ever since we started hiring last year, and I suspect when our joint contract is done, int'l overide will be an issue. So before anybody posting what a/c assignment will get you at an percentage, please bear in mind that it could all change. Unlike NWA, where it is much more clear cut between junior guys flying domestic, and senior guys flying int'l, it isn't the case at DAL. (Before the merger mania, there was rumor that 777 FO may go as junior as 1-2 year on the property) FWIW. Whereas a 744 FO at NWA is more senior than a 320 CA. We have very different a/c deployment strategy, it just makes sense that the new company will benefit almost everybody, with reasonable expectation.

But I do agree that's a lot of misinformation out there, and it's important that we get together and decide our future working side by side.
