All airlines will have their drawbacks and unhappy people so beware of that. Truthfully I still feel now would be a good time to come to silver. Nobody really knows the upgrade time but I feel 2 years is probably accurate even though others may disagree. Bases and commutability will change here in the near future when they have a staffing bid which is pretty much the opportunity to re-shuffle based on your seniority. We need more pilots for sure and I think if you can survive a couple years on Fo pay you will be in a descent place.
