I’m debating whether I want to head to AA, but I really don’t enjoy domestic flying, and much prefer int’l and overwater.
If this isn’t attainable at American within a year or two, I’m likely to either accept my CJO at Emirates, or take up an opportunity to interview at Kalitta. I just don’t want to be the guy that joins AA and wishes he was elsewhere. I’d rather save the spot for someone who is doing what they want to do.
Assuming we’re not being trolled, maybe this will help. I have 7 friends currently at Emirates anxiously waiting for an opportunity to leave Emirates for AAL, DAL, and UAL. I have NEVER heard anyone at AAL say they intend to leave their job for Emirates. If you’re seriously considering Kalitta over any of the network carriers, I would question your decision making process.
