It is a little early to worry about furloughs for the pilots.

When displacements are announced do they give you an opportunity to bid or are you required to simply maintain a displacement bid in ecrew at all times so as not to get screwed?

Quite the comedian.
Fact is that there are a few options on the table.
Frankly I would be very surprised if anything of substance came out prior to SLI. (Personal Opinion)

I wouldn't get too excited about our "furlough protection". If the poo hits the fan I suspect we'll find it as iron clad and useful as last time.

(and at least a Bachelor of Arts or Science degree if you don't already have one) After completing one or all of those you can then spend the next several years gaining the valuable experience you'll need to qualify for an invitation to interview for a Delta pilot position. After all that, if selected, then you too could enjoy the perks of which you seem so envious. That is of course if your "anyone could do your job" theory pans out.

I am glad pilots at DL were able to get EVERYTHING they got, that comes with being unionized and being able to NEGOTIATE.
