Question Merger question

All speculation of course, but still a question that crossed my mind..

Let's say Delta bought Jetblue and they merged. Do all the pilots morph into Delta pilots or do B6 pilots have to interview with Delta and meet their standards? For example: The 4 year degree requirement delta has in place. I know most B6 have one also, but not all of them. Do those without the 4 year suddenly find themselves in the unemployment line?

It’s B6...

And read up on airline history, it’ll do you some good.

All would be integrated into one pilot seniority group.

He seems to be a 135 guy who got turned down at spirit and is hoping to get hired here. Just is very naive about this industry.

Delta pilots would become JetBlue pilots. Double breasted would become single breasted. Cats and dogs would begin living together.

So when a delta pilot asks you if you’re a god you say YES!
