DL is poised for growth, especially intl. growth as their domestic side is established. They don’t publicize flashy future plans.. approx. retiring 3% a year with 2-3% growth behind it at 1,000/pilots a yr for “foreseeable” future.
Thats 5-6% movement a year. Widget Sen is amazing but also assuming 0 growth (which could very well occur or shrink).
Work with what you know. WN will never operate WB nor grow to the degree at majors will, in fact LLC system is deteriorating.
Is 10% system seniority the same as 10% system at DL? Only you can answer.
Latest -rumor- from LCP meeting I’ve heard is DL is hungry for another WB order & likes the idea of leveraging a 787 deal with Boeing debacle for cheaper, again a rumor.
P.S. you will be WBA at some point hired at 31 yr old, that 15 yr upgrade has 0 logic behind it for NB
He has 31 years until retirement which means he's 34. Still young ish, but he'll be behind tons of younger people his entire career. Still a decent career most likely.
