--WN will clock you a cool ~$750 more per year in Perdiem than F9.

--At WN you get a proven successful long term company with economy of scale

--At F9 you've got a somewhat risky yet possibly very profitable growth play.

--At WN you get a pilot's airplane with cramped quarters and lots of levers. Lands long, taxies fast!

--At F9 you get a comfy office with lots of room, a desk, and buttons that push and pull. Lands in the threshold, taxi speeds vary.

--At WN you get 4 to 6 legs a day flying with an ex- squadron commander or ex regional chief pilot.

--At F9 you get 1 to 3 legs a day flying with yet another laid back cool dude from every walk of life.

Money isn't everything

I pick here!

Wait, does Southwest do Redeyes?
