Title sort of speaks for itself, but I find myself in an interesting situation that’s a bit of a long story, so just wondering what the process would look like if I received a CJO but needed to defer starting employment for 6-9 months. Would I need to start the application/interview process over again? Or would that just be as simple as making a phone call to someone and saying hey I actually need to wait a couple months before starting to a date that was different on my application availability date?
Thanks in advance

if you’re doing this for a bonus/big payout at your current “pt91 large biz-cabin jet” job… I’d think twice about it.
You will always have the chance to make more money.
you can never, ever get back the seniority you have lost.

I delayed going to my 121 regional by 6 months for a retention bonus at my Part 91 job many many years ago. That ultimately cost me money, time, and seniority at mainline because of the way things worked out with Covid. You can easily credit 100+ hours /month as a new hire picking up greenslips. There’s a guy from my new hire class who is literally crediting 150+ every month. Don’t delay seniority in the current hiring/economic environment for a few thousand bucks.

You filled out your availability on the application. They questioned you about it again in your interview. The CJO letter clearly spells out its validity timelines.
You can't just change your mind because you got a better offer, and expect Delta Air Lines to wait around for you. The company needs people now, and if you can't uphold your end of the agreement, they will just move onto the next person. In fact, I think it kind of speaks volumes about your personal integrity and work traits to try and change the deal after the fact (unless it's a military commitment or emergency). Perhaps an error was made.
