NB does more up and down, you get more experience in the airline overall. This matters especially if you are prior military and have no airline experience. NB fleet growing faster than WB, more growth opportunities.
Whatever you do, appreciate opportunity to be here and show it. For all the things that are wrong, it’s a good company, good pilot group and a union that is working hard. New contract will only make things better, and, it’s coming, whether in 3 months or a year.
what I’d do… going bigger to smaller incurs a 3 year hard seat lock. Going smaller to bigger doesn’t have a seat lock.
