Less than 20, but also only been there for 6 months. Legacy wasn’t an option a year ago. Either way, it wouldn’t be a commute and would actually save me 40 minutes. I think reserves will get crushed at every airline this summer. Who knows if upgrades will stay at 4-5 years, especially if the merger is less than smooth. Currently stagnant because of attrition. And last but not least, flight benefits. I know they are virtually useless these days because of how flights are consistently oversold. But with 4 kids in college over the next 10 years, that could be big savings. Point to point benefits are so much less useful than hub and spoke.
