You will never be able to vote on a contract that doesn't have some tit for tat exchange in the scope section. The reason is market share, Delta doesn't own its own flying everywhere in the system. Especially going forward, since foreign governments want their own people flying the planes that come into their countries.
At some point, if the shortage gets so bad, that say Skywest falters, mainline will have to over hire, give a mainline number to the pilots, then furlough them to cover Skywest's market share. Otherwise, Delta has to surrender 5% of their network, which they would never do.

I'm fine with no TA until a legal strike. I don't care how long it takes, we WILL get there. You're not getting more DC-9 sized "RJ's" past DL MEMRAT in my opinion. But if you do, you better get them ASAP because each class/retirement wave the likelihood goes down.

And there are still 31 combined secondary vacancies not assigned for DTW. There is some movement. I can't wait to see what next year brings. Hopefully by December new hires can bid for DTW again.

Did a June 2016 new hire upgrade? All seat locks should of been released before even considering having someone with less than one year of experience upgrade.

Haven't even looked at the award but there are no locks to upgrade unless you bid to a lower paying position or have a training hold due to failure... not saying you or anyone falls into that grouping, but there are no locks to upgrade beyond those 2 scenarios unless my memory is failing me on the contractual language.

Doubt it, maybe a class or two at most, assuming no additional airplane. There's a lot of hiring in 2015, lots of those FO's have been flying a bunch, in an effort to get themselves to the regulatory minimum for upgrade. More airplanes and I have no doubt that's the case.
