To those considering coming here. We are currently being compensated for the company subcontracting a relative pittance of our loads out. We are getting this compensation because the IPA grieved the company’s violation of the scope clause in our contract and lost in arbitration. Compare this with the situation at Delta where over 50% of their wide body international flying (their highest paying flying, see the quote from their forum below) has been handed over to JVs. We definitely have our issues working at what is culturally a trucking company, but overall it’s a pretty sweet gig. We have been successful in protecting the most lucrative flying on the high end and preventing creeping losses on the low end.

The long term goal for international is 50/50 with Delta and its partner airlines... put it in writing in the PWA that 50% of all intentional flying will be done by DALPA pilots on DAL metal with size and frequency measurements then. Guarantee us that portion and if it isn't met a pay stipend for the generated revenue from all international ops. And 50% doesn't mean 45.5 - 54.5% either because we all know that just means 45.5%.
