Delta has 900's to assign and the rumor is they give them to an airline who isn't even flying delta colored airplanes yet that is hiring because they think they're getting these planes. Sounds like ASA is going downhill bigtime.
Makes no sense to me.

Don't make this so difficult. It's simply post bankruptcy economics where they need, desire, want, etc. as much profit in house as possible.
Just remember, "deserve" has nothing to do with it as all pilots deserve better. It's simply a solid business decision that aids one group at the expense of others like every other managerial decision in this industry.
The "Good Karma" in this crazy circle of life will come knocking on ASA's door eventually at the expense of someone else.
