Comair had parity with Delta on all Delta and Comair flights until last year. When Delta inherited Mesaba and Compass, Delta decided that they couldn't keep everyone at the same level. You know, too many regional guys trying to get to work in too many Delta hubs.
So Comair flight bennies were reduced to that of Compass and Mesaba (who, as I recall, got improvements from their NW days). We lost our 6 S2 passes, lost all priority on Delta, and only keep DOH on our own metal.
Now that Compass and Mesaba are sold, and Comair has been reduced from 6500 to 2500 employees, you'd think Delta would be able to return us to our 2008 pass benefits.
You can take one guess how that's going...
