While there is no disagreement on profit sharing, their profit numbers will always be better than ours due to their outsourced international flying. United has and for the foreseeable future will have far more widebody flying. When you factor that pay differential vs. profit sharing, I would go with United (Captain with 12 years on 777 = $359/hour with international override vs. 320 Captain $283/hr. = $76/hr X 1000 hours pay credit per year, $76,000. 10% difference in profit sharing won’t get you that) . But like everyone above has emphasized, commuting versus living in base should be a minor consideration.
