Bastian has installed sycophants and unqualified personnel at every level. Whether to prop up DEI initiatives or to protect his fiefdom, he has hollowed out any hope of long-term viability. He does not prioritize mentorship, period. He is totally uninterested in finding the most qualified people for upper and middle management. Just look at the clowns who get promoted up and down the flight ops structure. Now extrapolate that to every department.

Delta’s chickens will come home to roost and it won’t take long after Bastian retires as CEO before Delta is the next AA. He’ll bail out the moment it all starts falling apart.

The only question is whether he has built generational wealth, or p!ssed it all away on drunk wives, flight attendant baby mammas, and ****ty shoes.

Time for one last stock buyback to juice his equity.

I just hope I can get one more selfie with “Ed.”
