[QUOTE=FastNeatAvg;3587004]Why? What are your reasons?[/

I’ll start with your If WB flying is something you’re interested in, you will get there quicker with UAL, DAL than AA. I’m at AA, and we just don’t have the airframes they do. It’ll be attainable within a few years with our retirements, but right now with our NB schedules being awful, it’s sr in both seats. Sounds like you have kids? Seniority movement for you is a plus. At your age you can opt to be a sr fo at some point with vacation and holidays. So if that’s important to you, something to consider. We need a major contract overhaul of QOL. No doubt our weakness right now. We will have movement, it’s fairly quick if being a jr CA is something you’re interested in too, which is right at 3yrs for our jr bases. I’m 7yrs in, I opt to be a sr fo for a bit, with kids, and the wife’s schedule.

If we can a get a descent contract, it’ll make life better, no doubt. Lots of options now a days. I have friends at every place, probably like most people commenting on here. I think the best advice I ever heard was, get married once, and don’t commute. Good luck.
