I sincerely hope (and think) that it'll be an overall improvement for both pilot groups in terms of pay, qol, contract language, etc.
If your intentions are to move to Florida, this really changes nothing. Both airlines have bases there now and we will certainly have bases there after this is done. Its perhaps the safest bet you could make.
