Did you get the job offer from Spirit? Best wishes either way.

If you shine like a diamond in a goat's a**, don't change anything. Only you know your chances of being hired by Delta. It will be four years before you make what you are making now. A lot can happen in four years - even positive stuff.

What's that saying, "one in hand is worth two in the bush"?
I ran into an ex Mesaba guy who is there, and he was all smiles. He said he loved it. I will grant you, he is probably still in the honeymoon phase, but yeah....happy dude. And hey, if ya get your Airbus type, plus your other experience, who is to say Delta won't take you in a few years anyway? Shoot, they will be depleting pilots from their competitor.

They will have to do something to slow attrition and attract, now the Doom and gloom is over. Your going to see major growth and upgrade apportunities by spring and hiring by this fall. Keeping 200's longer bidding on 32 700's which will probably get and new 900's sooner with options of 30 more than the agreement. But if you already have PIC its what you think is best. Flip of the coin and no guarantees.
With the new -900s, expect for Delta to play the whipsaw game between Pinnacle and Skywest. Maybe even GoJets. No reason for them to change the game plan now.
