Strike,
I would not listen to anyone who is absolutely certain which company to choose. Especially those who make snarky (see above) remarks and have shown bias towards one airline or another in the past. You can view each contributors posts from the past to see if they are worth listening to. Some comments need to be relegated to the IHSWA thread.
Frankly, as a long time employee at SWA I still look forward to going
to work. That given, some of the arguments to choose the "new" AA are certainly good ones. Evaluate the truly helpful comments and make a decision on what is best for you. Good luck!

P. S. These same decisions have been discussed for decades. This very decision was being made by my fellow squadron mates in the 80's. I will only say that some of them made a decision and then, because of bad luck are now at little 'ol SWA. What appears to be a slam dunk in this industry usually isn't.
