1. You dont care a bout equipment/routes... then UA/NK no difference.
2. Money: UA better than NK, but if 10k per month are not enough 20k wont be either. My point here is you wont need to get a side job in your days offf at NK (probably also not at retirement). But if you definitely want that extra approx 10% then you have to seek a legacy.
3. QOL: NK is great. Dont know about UA. Ask your friends at both. We hve grat rules and can drop down to zero per month so you can work yourself rhisnmotnh and take it off next.... thats huge IMO.
4: domicile: you sre willing to relocate-ok, but whats your number 1 option.
5 uograde at NK sooner than UA that menas more money sooner--- will it outweight UA payscales... maybe/ maybe not...
at the end eveything comes down to QOL.
IMO there is never a definite answer for this question.... if you lived in ATL I wouldnt hesitate to say that the best airline is DL.... IAH/ewr UA..... FLL JBLU/NK....
To each its own
right now everything is different with covid, but we do have LIM as layover
