I've pretty much written DAL off at this point, I just hope I have enough left seat time to impress another airline such as ups, fedex, or southwest.
I am with you there. I have also written off DAL. Way too many junior guys on top of you even if you get hired today. It would take too many years to upgrade at DAL that is if you don't get furloughed. Besides, there are too many aviation analysts who are smarter than we are in predicting airline business trends who predict shrinkage of pilot roster at major airlines like DAL via utilizing joint alliance concept.
