Go for who offers the first class date?
One fellow FLYI guy did this, then left for SWA right after IOE. Not cool. Make a choice and stick with it. Another month or two won't kill anyone.
Bigger network?
Points to UAL. Better chance of getting based where you want.
Fresh ideas?
Maxjet has a solid product. Nice to be proud about how the pax perceive the company you work for.
Union or not?
I'd go Union if all other things were equal. ALPA has its faults, but I know I've used their services in the past.
There are too many variables to list here that need to be considered and I would appreciate another perspective on this scenario.
