I have $20 on y'all need to stop being so dramatic.
Shrinkage? Sure. Closing? The only way that happens is if Delta decides to cede NYC to AmeriBlue. Delta can replace us in every other base, because every other base that we operate in is easy. However, they have no one else who can do NYC like 9E can - not even mainline. That's not a boast, either. That's just stats.

We'll see. The question is how much/how fast can we shrink before the line operation completely falls apart? I don't think they want to shut us down, but if they can no longer rely on us to cover the schedule that calculus might change...

Everything was shut down for about 3 weeks or so . Free vacation . So much of the DCI flying has to be done by Union represented pilots .

9E shutdown? Not a chance. Not gonna happen. Sorry.
Delta has some sort of trigger point such as not being able to fully staff the 900's after first parking the 200's. Once the trigger occurs a new round of pilot incentives will be rolled out. It may take the form of mainline pay equality, but you have flow to Delta when your number is up or go back to current pay. Such a program will also have a sunset date.
A seniority number at Delta would fix attrition but money seems to be the preferred incentive.
Enjoy the free meals in the meantime. Small but nice perk. 9E management is working with what they have been given.
Oh, and if things aren't happening fast enough for you, leave. Many already have and many more will. Of all the votes you could cast that's the one that matters the most.

I think several other regionals will shut down or merge by then. Don’t think Endeavor. May shrink. May get stapled. May not. Hard to say.
