From what i understand, Delta will indeed have priority over anyone on Delta flights. Delta will have equal priority over everyone on their connection carrier, except skywest and asa where the current policy will remain in place.

It's all posted on DeltaNET.
 
Yeppers. Now why is EV, and SW different. I am guessing their DCI contract, but it still stumps me.
 
You are correct, SIR!

So a 30 year Delta 777 captain will ride before a 2 year Chautauqua FO, when boarding a Chautauqua airplane? Or am I misunderstanding you?

You are correct. No misunderstanding. 2 year Chautauqua FO will ride before a 1 yr DAL 767 FO or a 1 year Comair FA, so there is something!

Why should you go before an ASA or Skywest employee on an ASA or Skywest flight?
 
well this is complete B.S.

On a Delta mainline flight, DL employees will have priority over EVERYONE else not working at DL. On Delta Connection flights, it will go DOH. That is better than the 25 year Comair Captain beating me out of a mainline first class seat. Not anymore....

Doesn't it have to do with who owns/pays for the assets (aircraft and facilities)? That is, Delta owns or holds the leases on aircraft at wholly-owned carriers, but ASA and Skywest own their own equipment. If Delta pays for the equipment, then their employees should have priority, since they should really be the ones operating it.
