That is Funny! He’s still on property though, so Delta will have to pay him to sit at home, since he won’t be able to fly International after he turns 65. They’ll be forced to buy his trips. They can’t force a domestic downgrade.

I don’t think there is anything in the contract that would allow the company a mulligan on that one.

What would stop the company and ALPA to come together and draft an LOA?

Agreed, but I’d think twice before anticipating a bypass on the upcoming AE if that’s what I was hoping for

It will quickly revert to AE as soon as the memo hits tomorrow. Flex will be the first to post on the topic.
