Not sure if this is accurate or not, feel free to chime in if you are or know someone who is eligible prior, but I've heard there were Oct 2016 upgrades that were some of the first to qualify under DGI. If that is accurate, then we are about 9 months away, minus the E2D few.
That being said, it is my opinion that if any E2D guys don't upgrade, they should simply be bypassed. Seems unfair to hold up those who are trying their best to succeed in going to DL and meet the requirements.

The DGI is non-contractual so they can do whatever they want with it, including just saying "sorry we changed our minds". Don't hold your breath. Thankfully we are the highest hourly paid regional for the time being, and we're adding aircraft. Don't hold your breath for the DGI, however.

ALPA can't touch DGI because it's between DL, EDV, and us pilots. It's non contractual. One of their lawyers told me I have to talk to a CP or such because they can't get involved at all.

Derail Endeavor? If the interview guarantees from Delta
Won’t happen because of it you’re dreaming. Our pilot hiring will drop by 50% if that’s the case. No way!
