(edit: I consider profit sharing as an integral part of my compensation and I budget for it throughout the entire year. Since it’s so expected, I think it mainly serves to remind employees how every department can impact the bottom line, but I haven’t seen profit sharing influence behavior changes more than wages/salaries do. Profit sharing is just part of everyone’s annual pay.)

Delta constantly rolls the fleet through interior cabin mods... how much more or less money to spend in that area is a useful discussion. I like the overall state of cabin interiors, but a few aircraft subfleets could definitely use some love.
thanks for the info, very informative and helpful for me to understand more about the process.
