And for Nov-Dec, that proved to be quite challenge for them.
But then again, a while back, AA(G) had a similar issue.

If WB flying is your goal, consider the following. You may see UALs numbers decline a little (probably a very little) as they look to expand their NB foot print.
UAL has 31% of their pilots on WB aircraft, AAL has 21%. DAL has 20%...but only 7% at the top pay rate since we don't band our 330/764 with the 777/350.
Best of luck!
*Numbers are 6-9 months old and based on active pilots.

Although the one poster nailed it, take the first class, THEN make a decision.

Do these percentages at UA and AA include the lower paying 767s?

Intersting thing about the numbers. If DAL pay banded the way UAL/AAL did, we would have more WB captains than AAL and would be ~50 Captains shy of UAL. Obviously, we lose out on WB FOs.
