I've read and heard that Republic has the "worst benefits in the industry," in terms of priority, etc. Is there truth to that? My understanding is that you will have all 3 majors by the end of the year and can list 2 travel companions on united, and 1 on AA. Family for all 3.
I wouldn't call the flight benefits the worst in the industry. You will have lower priority then wholly owned regionals, but you will have more options because you will have benefits on multiple airlines. I haven't used the AA benefits yet but I hear they are terrible. From what I have heard, AA is going back to the Us Airways wings page which will make them a lot better. United and Delta always worked well for me.
