Cherry pickers are out in force, but freely admit that DAL is farther into the post CHP11 and better run in terms of profitability than AA.
Remember, the guys running us ran an operation paying CA's $125/hour not long ago and decided PHL was a far better international hub than JFK.
The future will be interesting. Much of AA's high debt was due to refleeting. That is basically done. UAL and DAL have some big checks to write for jets at higher interest rates. We'll see.
Delta has been and will continue paying for jets with cash. Go read their 10K’s…
