It’s much cheaper to hire and train than integrate another group.

This vacancy, which his most recent memo is attached to, does not come close to adhering with the staffing projections so dont believe a word of it

Not to mention the morale killer another merger of lists would be here.

It is also no secret that Delta wants control of their own brand which is mostly controllable with Endeavor. RJs are a necessary evil for now. Ed recently stated that he is “happy with the amount of RJ flying Delta has.”

The A220/717 combo is going to be a big deal once it’s all said and done with respect to large RJ flying replacements. Delta pilots will not be giving an inch of SCOPE in upcoming negotiations.

At the same time, given that DGS is being sold and Monroe Energy is being shopped, maybe 9E is being shopped too?

I’ve been overly optimistic in the past. Almost to the point of where I could be called a koolaid drinker. I’ve bought their sales pitch hook line and sinker. But 5 years of empty promises leads me to believe that maybe I’m being had. I hope I’m wrong, but now is the time for Delta to follow through on something.

I bet it'll be fun working with DGS crews who have just learned that their travel benefits have an expiration date. It's hard enough to hire ground crews in some outstations. What's going to keep folks from bailing to other ramp operations that do offer flight benefits? It's not like the pay or the hours are keeping them there.

Nah probably not right now, if they start cutting budgets, bring on a RIF, scale back on expenditures, and start screaming about cutting back on fuel use - then we are being prepped for a sale and should be concerned.
