In today's environment, with several of those ACMI lots having new contracts in place is the ULCC still a 'better' option for someone not anchored to any particular place in the country?
Thanks
Depends on the specific companies, but generally for pay and retirement contributions, ULCC wins. You’ll find outliers (guys from an ACMI who work hard to support both their primary and shadow families, or a Captain from a U/LCC who drops down to min credit every month) from each group. Two very different types of flying though.
