Still a slippery slope argument. For an agreement that can be cancelled anytime, I wouldn't overestimate anything. You need to be a CA. It doesn't matter why one doesn't upgrade but if you don't, I wouldn't count on Delta still taking an EtD. The whole point of that agreement is to get pilots to fill seats at E, not D. Didn't you watch the Mesaba flow go poof first hand? I would think you'd know best when it comes to Delta.

Their is no breach! It states that DAL can cancel the program at anytime in the contract. They should have put it in big bold letters because that is kinda a big thing to put in a contract. It allows them tons of flexibility.

I'm assuming single you didn't add any other airlines like Skywest then they must be less than 5 or 10% of those hired?

Furthermore, the stuff on the 9E website is an outline of the program, it's not the actual paperwork you sign.

And shyguy said the SSP would never amount to a hill of beans. Congrats to the 100's of 9E pilots who have gotten hired by Delta this year.

I never said anything about a hill of beans. It speaks for itself with a selection rate of 38%, and recently heard as high as 50-60%. And I say congrats to all pilots hired at Delta this year, military, civilian, street, regional flows, everyone. It's nice to see a year in which every single legacy/major carrier is hiring which is something we haven't had since 9/11.

I really hope young pilots do their own due diligence on the subject. You like to come on here and talk in absolutes. If this happens then you automatically move up to Delta. Sorry my friend but history is not on your side. At one point in time it was in our mainline contract that 25% of all new hires would come from our wholly owned airlines Comair and ASA. ASA was sold to Skywest and Comair went the way of the dinosaur and they didn't automatically move up to Delta when it happened.
