AA WOs or 9E are really the best 2 options right now. Pick an AA WO based on where you want to live or pick 9E for the same reasons. I think the AA WOs have an edge over 9E because of the flow. Secondary choices would be Republic or SkyWest (cringe). Only because I see both of them being the least likely to lose flying over the next few years. All others are a gamble.

9E raises pay. The WOs are already in talks with management to do the same. Republic is in talks... The rest of the industry will try to follow. The TSH regionals will have a tough time keeping up. Mesa won’t be able to keep up but will still be able to staff because pilots who fail out of their regional training have to go somewhere. The United regionals will quasi keep up but I see real problems on the horizon for United’s regional feed. And SkyWest will keep their pay low and ride out their 1% /year raises because “West coast bases”.
