I'm not drinking the Kool-Aid but if your end goal is Delta and you lived in NY, I don't see a reason to go anywhere but 9E.

Then account for EtDs who will eventually see a left seat, and then on top of that, serve 2 years as CA. These EtDs will not see Delta. Not based on the current fleet plan. So arguably, the slowest way to get to Delta is through the EtD. A pilot is far better off going to Compass, Mesa, or PSA. Maybe even Piedmont now that their new contract passed and they stand to gain growth for the new AA.

The good news is, barring ISIS/oil/etc crisis, the hiring should really be picking up at every single LCC/legacy: Virgin, JetBlue, Spirit, Frontier, Allegiant, Delta, American, and United should all be hiring in good numbers for 2015.

The only effective way would have been for Delta to give a Delta seniority number at the time of passing the Delta/Endeavor interview and being assigned an Endeavor class date. Anything short of that is just wishful thinking signed on a piece of paper that Delta can change on whim.
