There is NO whole life option at Delta. GVUL is NOT a whole life policy. I hope MetLife makes more money on the GVUL insurance portion. They are providing an insurance product that saves pilots money and are due a reasonable profit for the superior offering.

The investment portion is lackluster. The inclusion of insurance premiums in the investment basis provides a small tax advantage and MetLife charges a front end investment fee of 2.25% because of it. Including the cost of insurance in the investment basis is a good example of the power insurance companies wield in DC.
