Did you only apply to those three regionals and delta? No United, Southwest, etc? Are you putting all your eggs in the “eventually Delta” basket?

Another options outside 9E would be PSA. Tons of flights from ATL to CLT, and it seems like Delta likes to pull from the AA regionals.

Also apply to Frontier and Spirit for ATL bases.

If you really want Delta, get there from outside the DL system.

I’ve applied to multiple airlines to include United and Southwest, so hoping for Delta but not putting all my eggs in one basket.

Any particular reason on why Delta is metering or not pulling apps from people at partner regionals? Thank you in advance for any information.

Same reason American plays the same game with its WO regionals. They don’t want to “damage” their own feeders when there are desirable candidates elsewhere. American WO are the fastest path to United. Although Delta is picking up a growing number of our pilots now too.

At the end of the day it is likely a zero sum game with lots of uniform swapping going on from regional to legacy.

I was given a CJO, followed up with a PARB review. My CJO was rescinded stating I was too “crazy” to work for Delta. Now I consider myself pretty self aware of who I am, 15 years at a 121 carrier with a squeaky clean record on and off the clock my entire life, as well as 9 years of military service. I just don’t feel something is adding up, but after hearing about this metering of Delta regionals, it makes me curious. This is all speculation on my part, but just wanted to throw it out there.

So I received a interview invite on Wednesday, called, and left a message on the same day. (The message on their answering machine says to leave a message and they will get back to you in 24hrs) Have been calling multiple times a day everyday thereafter. Left another message today. Anyone else not getting through or any response when they try to schedule an interview?
