DAL was in the lead pre-covid but chaos is a ladder and UAL has climbed it during and thru the exit from COVID. All things being equal I'd say the drive wins it out for UAL. DAL is still great but the wind is at UAL's back now(from this DL pilots view).
Thanks for the input! Yeah, definitely a big factor for me as well. I think the shorter drive and quicker seniority building with make UA a better place for QOL
