Default Pass Benefits at DAL

With the inclusion of the FNWA regionals with DOH for passes, the only employee group that did not carry DOH for passes with them are the pilots who interviewed and got hired at NWA and DAL.

Thousands of ASA's rampers and gate agents were "hired" by Delta with their pass benefits. Why not the pilots who were hired by Delta the same month?

With the upcoming displacement of legions of Delta pilots, the effect of Delta's generosity with pass benefits is that Delta pilots are going to find it difficult to commute to and from the cities where they never wanted to work in the first place.

A Mesaba ramper on his way to enjoy dinner and a movie on a 777 out of Atlanta is going to bump ACL 65 on his return from IOE on a DC9. Fair?

Any way to "me too" on the DOH that every other employee group has enjoyed as Delta has enjoyed the benefits of merger synergies?
