I know I'll have to commute if I get WB at UA. The reserve rules are also no where as good as delta.
So right now I'm faced with a dilemma. Do I go to UA class first, see what I get and how it is, does it fit me? Then if I don't like go to DL? Or just go to DL directly?
If you live in MCO and don’t intend to leave, UAL is the better choice because you live in base vs a career of commuting by air. You’ll have the option to commute to wide body for periods of time but can still spend as much of your career living in base as you want to as long as you’re willing to fly the 737.
