Should a 737 captain who has no career expectation to an international widebody seat go ahead of a DL/NW pilot because of DOH?
You would understand if we were to merge with Virgin America for example. Somehow I don't think ratio would be in your vocabulary at all. Why - because ratioing a two year old airline in with Delta would be a HUGE windfall for VA. It would/should go DOH with fences to protect VA guys from being bumped from the equipment they brought. See how well that works?. It even works for an extreme example like Virgin America.
