Same thing that happened with the hotels and uniforms. UAL added MCO and LAS pilot bases because there live a lot of them and no one was upgrading.

Apparently lates rumor is that…online assessment might be going away.
Why did we got rid of the JKT, the 4 yr degree? I’m sure the psych tests will be gone eventually. Everybody is hurting on applicants, they are hiring people that 5 yrs ago wouldn’t even got an interview.

It’s a relatively recent development in DL history where we can even ride our own jumpseat (2000 I believe) we have thousands of pilots who were hired with no ability to jumpseat. I’ve flown with more than 1 who wants to go back to that.
not saying OP is that way, but “old school delta” and apathy towards commuters and jumpseat issues seem to overlap quite a bit
it’s kinda weird given how many bases DL has closed over the past 30ish years ( I know BOS, DFW, MCO, MEM, CVG, PDX, and ORD. I think MIA, MSY, ANC, and HNL were bases in the last 40 years as well ) also the last I heard over half the air line commutes. (which really says something about our choice of bases, or lack thereof)

How old school are you? Want to bring back smoking in the cockpit? Jepp Paper Charts? NDB approaches?

Times have changed. Apparently 23 years ago. No one is forcing in base guys to stay in PTC.
