I left my Regional to JetBlue in hopes of having a better "wait station" while I get called by a real Major. After 2 years of being here most of my friends that chose to stay behind are at United now and I am still here with $50,000 of income loss over the past 2 years, not to mention increased healthcare cost on top of it. Starting on my 3rd year pay now and my paycheck is higher than it was at the Regional but I have less days off and far worse of a drive to work. Would I do this again if I had a chance to go back? Probably not...
