Prospective Endeavor Air pilots have a choice. Personally if you want to go to Delta and don't have the credentials to get there directly come to Endeavor. You will be favored since you will have already been vetted by coming to Endeavor. Endeavor is set up to become the regional carrier of choice for Delta. People who bring up ASA or Comair are comparing apples to oranges.
Endeavor is being spooled down. Going there is the absolute worst move possible.

No upgrades in sight at Endeavor? WRONG.
I teach CA upgrades in the simulator on a weekly basis (just finished two). Given the current attrition combined with -900 expansion there ARE upgrades currently and will continue into the future.
Yes, some downgrades will occur due to the Bloch award (9E -200 CA to -900 FO), BUT they are now pay protected as Captains.

Not a justification, just an observation (mostly a guess really). I would say that management knows that pilots will be gone at the first opportunity whereas maintenance personnel can make more of a career out of it.... Why pay someone lots of coin when you have little chance of keeping them anyway?

For starters, per diem is NOT income. End of story.
Secondly, we have been hearing about how things at endeavor will improve and how delta has good things in the works for us for almost a year now. The only thing we received so far came just a few days ago and was contractually supposed to have been here 3 and a half years ago for reserve transparency. So, it takes over 3 years for things to come which means we have almost 3 years before these glorious ideas that delta has come to fruition.

Thank you for posting the definition of the noun income, because thats what we all need on here, more petulance.
Too bad every example you mentioned is all taxable income while per diem is not. Just a coincidence I guess. But what do I know, Im just another 20k crack in the seat FO

Except now, maybe there will be a shortage of noobs willing to work for so little. Only time will tell.
