This was posted under a different thread but after the "Everything Delta is doing sucks" posts for the past three weeks I thought this would bring a different North perspective. Not everyone is in purgatory right now.
"My Father was planning on doing the same but decided to stay around. Apparently Delta is treating them much better than NWA did and has figured out a way to make more money while being home more! We did the math one night and he is earning more than a 74 Capt currently (75/76 out of MSP). I guess you just gotta know how to work the system. Delta seems like a great place, I have never seen him so excited to go to work!! I am very happy for him, its a big improvement from his attitude the past few years. You guys are all very lucky, I can only dream of the day I can get there."
