Good learning experience and I know better for round two next year.
Starcheck, it was a pleasure to meet you. I thought all 8 of us had it nailed, but if it makes you feel better, im happy youre going to US/AA. You will likely surpass all of us who are going to DAL in relative seniority. I live 25 minutes from PHL, its my hometown airline, youre going to be very happy there regardless of the apparent mess theyre in now with integration. DAL already knows that AA will be the airline to beat in 5 to 10 years (they are telling new hires this). Congratulations!
