Yea - there is a memo on the IFS part of DeltaNet basically saying this - as in, y'all better get your representation all figured out, because there is more growth on ex-Delta planes at the moment than ex-NWA planes, so if the FAs want to keep busy - get the representation figured out.
Also, apparently the FA's contract says that any flying done by Northwest pilots on Northwest planes must be flown by Northwest FAs. The memo goes on a length how there isn't Northwest pilots or Northwest planes anymore, because we're all Delta. Thus, the scope clause is void. Also, even though the 747 is all Northwest pilots because of the fences, the company can't keep the FAs separate because they mix with other Delta planes (I guess in NRT or AMS, they don't say). Anyway - it's an interesting read on how the company is trying to lean on the FAs for them to decide representation issues.
