It’s pathetic, and DL has two of the worst offenders. Nobody cares. Either airline could put you on the street in your career. Get a grip.

Making your employer your identity is just sad.

This is like when someone refers to a football team as "us" and "we". Really? When is the last time you took a snap?

These people act like they have some ownership in these places. They're just another cog in the machine and when you retire you will be forgotten before the end of the day.

“Dominate?” Ok.

FriendlyPilot-We are getting 7 slots in 2027 from B6 with more in 2028. We could even get the 4 slots back that we were given by the FAA in 2021, which takes us to 11 which is 5 or 6 daily slots pairs each to LAX/SFO.

coming here as a delta pilot feels like being an american in europe, just always apologetically saying “those guys don’t represent all of us”

That's interesting that you think that's real.

You could also just say you fly for Air Canada or Westjet
