If you commute for either one or live in a DAL base the choice is a no-brainer. IMO.
I would at least apply first, you can't turn down a job you don't have.
Over time, DAL, SWA, jetBlue, and Spirit/Frontier are going to eat our lunch. Our product is crap compared to DAL/jetBlue and our front facing people are bitter and absolutely hate customers. Hell, even our own employees hate each other.
Why am I still here? I plan to move/retire to a junior AA base and AA can at least give me a couple more years so I can walk away if needed.
So Delta was better off when they announced bankruptcy and AA had not yet?
My dad has flown at Delta since 85 and my mom since 96 and both have told me they have taken their turn at the bottom. Everyone will and right now it's AA because we are last out of bankruptcy and merging three airlines.
Every airline can be great or HELL depending on who they hire as a CEO and President. AA will have their day at the top and bottom just like everyone else has.
